*PURPOSE and SCOPE*
Virtualization has become the foundation of cloud computing. The
scale of
cloud computing data centers is similar to the supercomputers used
in High
Performance Computing. Both involve millions of CPU cores, tens of
thousands of accelerators like GPUs, FPGAs connected by high speed
interconnects and different connection topologies. Studies have
shown that
the GPU utilization in HPC is often at 50%. Virtualization can be
the key
to increasing resource utilization and managing massive
infrastructures
efficiently.
GPU vendors have introduced virtualized versions of GPUs. FPGAs
are being
deployed in virtual infrastructure. These and other developments
in the
field, along with future exascale systems, will provide increasing
degree
of virtualization within the systems.
The goal of this session is to be an opportunity to discuss and
exchange
research on the different virtualization technologies and how they
can be
efficiently applied in High Performance Computing. Theoretical
research,
engineering solutions dealing with practical tradeoffs, and
complex system
implementation papers are welcomed.
*The VIRT topics include (but are not limited to) the following: *
- *Virtualization in HPC*
o Energy efficient solutions for HPC applications in the cloud
environment

*INSTRUCTIONS FOR PAPER SUBMISSIONS*
You are invited to submit original and unpublished research works
on above
and other topics related to *virtualization in high performance
computing
and simulation*. Submitted papers must not have been published or
simultaneously submitted elsewhere until it appears in HPCS
proceedings, in
the case of acceptance, or notified otherwise. For Regular papers,
please
submit a PDF copy of your full manuscript, not to exceed 8
double-column
formatted pages per template, and include up to 6 keywords and an
abstract
of no more than 400 words. Additional pages will be charged
additional fee.
Submission should include a completed online web based form (can
also
include a cover page) with authors' names, affiliation addresses,
fax
numbers, phone numbers, and all authors email addresses. Please,
indicate
clearly the corresponding author(s) although all authors are
equally
responsible for the manuscript. Short papers (up to 4 pages),
poster papers
and posters (please refer to
http://hpcs2019.cisedu.info/1-call-for-papers-and-participation/call-for-posters
for posters submission details) will also be considered. Please
specify
the type of submission you have. Please include page numbers on
all
preliminary submissions to make it easier for reviewers to provide
helpful
comments.
Submit a PDF copy of your full manuscript to the special session
paper
submission site at
https://cmt3.research.microsoft.com/VIRT2019 .
Acknowledgement will be sent within 48 hours of submission.
*Conference Policies*
Only PDF files will be accepted, uploaded to the submission link
above.
Each paper will receive a minimum of three reviews. Papers will be
selected
based on their originality, relevance, significance, technical
clarity and
soundness, presentation, language, and references. Submission
implies the
willingness of at least one of the authors to register and present
the
paper, if accepted. At least one of the authors of each accepted
paper will
have to register and attend the HPCS 2019 conference to present
the paper
at the special session as scheduled. By submitting the paper to
the HPCS
conference, all authors agree to abide by all HPCS conference
paper
submission, publication and presentation policies as well as
following
ethical and professional codes of conduct, including those of the
professional co-sponsoring organizations. Contents of manuscripts
submitted
to the tracks program committees shall be regarded as privileged
as well
and handled in the same manner and standards. For more
information, please
refer to the Authors Info

pages.
*Proceedings*
Accepted papers will be published in the Conference proceedings.
Instructions for final manuscript format and requirements will be
posted on
the HPCS 2019 Conference web site. It is our intent to have the
proceedings
formally published in hard and soft copies and be available at the
time of
the conference. The proceedings is projected to be included in the
IEEE or
ACM Digital Library and indexed in all major indexing services
accordingly.
*SPECIAL ISSUE*
Plans are underway to have the best papers, in extended version,
selected
for possible publication in a reputable journal as special issue.
Detailed
information will soon be announced and will be made available on
the
conference website.
If you have any questions about paper submission or the special
session,
please contact the special session organizers.
