======================================================================== Call For Papers
Third International IEEE Workshop on Extreme Scale Programming Models and Middleware (ESPM2 2017)
November 12, 2017, Denver, Colorado
to be held in conjunction with SuperComputing 2017, November 12 - 16, 2017 Denver, Colorado
http://nowlab.cse.ohio-state.edu/espm2/ ========================================================================
Next generation architectures and systems being deployed are characterized by high concurrency, low memory per-core, and multiple levels of hierarchy and heterogeneity. These characteristics bring out new challenges in energy efficiency, fault-tolerance and, scalability. It is commonly believed that software has the biggest share of the responsibility to tackle these challenges. In other words, this responsibility is delegated to the next generation programming models and their associated middleware/runtimes. This workshop focuses on different aspects of programming models such as task-based parallelism (Charm++, OCR, Habanero, Legion, X10, HPX, etc), PGAS (OpenSHMEM, UPC, CAF, Chapel, UPC++, etc.), BigData (Hadoop, Spark, etc), Deep Learning (Caffe, Microsoft CNTK, Google TensorFlow), directive-based languages (OpenMP, OpenACC) and Hybrid MPI+X, etc. It also focuses on their associated middleware (unified runtimes, interoperability for hybrid programming, tight integration of MPI+X, and support for accelerators) for next generation systems and architectures.
The ultimate objective of the ESPM2 workshop is to serve as a forum that brings together researchers from academia and industry working in the areas of programming models, runtime systems, compilers, programming languages, and application developers.
ESPM2 2017 will be held as a full day workshop in conjunction with the SuperComputing (SC 2017), Denver, Colorado, USA, Sunday, November 12th, 2017.
Topics ------
ESPM2 2017 welcomes original submissions in a range of areas, including but not limited to:
* New programming models, languages and constructs for exploiting high concurrency and heterogeneity * Experience with and improvements for existing parallel languages and run-time environments such as: - MPI - PGAS (OpenSHMEM, UPC, CAF, Chapel, UPC++, etc.) - Directive-based programming (OpenMP, OpenACC) - Asynchronous Task-based models (Charm++, OCR, Habanero, Legion, X10, HPX, etc) - Hybrid MPI+X models - BigData (Hadoop, Spark, etc), and - Deep Learning (Caffe, Microsoft CNTK, Google TensorFlow) * Parallel compilers, programming tools, and environments * Software and system support for extreme scalability including fault tolerance * Programming environments for heterogeneous multi-core systems and accelerators such as KNL, OpenPOWER, ARM, GPUs, FPGAs, MICs, and DSPs
Papers should present original research and should provide sufficient background material to make them accessible to the broader community.
Best Paper Award ----------------
Intel has generously offered to sponsor the Best Paper Award. This award will be given to the author(s) of the paper selected by the Technical Program Committee and the Program Chairs. The award will be determined from viewpoints of the technical and scientific merits, impact on the science and engineering of the research work and the clarity of presentation of the research contents in the paper.
Keynote Speakers ----------------
We are happy to announce that Prof. William D. Gropp, Interim Director and Chief Scientist at the National Center for Supercomputing Applications and the Thomas M. Siebel Chair in Computer Science at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign will deliver the keynote address at ESPM2'17.
Panel Information -----------------
Panel Topic : Effective Programming Models for Deep Learning at Scale Panel Moderator : Daniel Holmes, EPCC, The University of Edinburgh, UK. Panel Members : Coming soon!
Paper Submission and Registration ---------------------------------
Abstracts and papers need to be submitted via the EasyChair conference system.
EasyChair URL for ESPM2'17: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=espm22017
Submissions should not exceed 8 pages using ACM format with 10pt font. Each submission must be a single PDF file.
Papers must be submitted in PDF format (readable by Adobe Acrobat Reader 5.0 and higher) and formatted for 8.5" x 11" (U.S. Letter).
The manuscript should be formatted according to ACM format (see http://www.acm.org/sigs/publications/proceedings-templates)
Papers should present original research and should provide sufficient background material to make them accessible to the broader community. It should not be submitted in parallel to any other conference or journal.
At least one of the authors of each accepted paper must register as a participant of the workshop and present the paper at the workshop, in order to have the paper published in the proceedings.
Each research paper will be taken through a comprehensive peer review process by an internationally recognized group of experts in the field. Papers will be evaluated along the metrics of a) Quality of Presentation; b) Novelty / Originality; c) Relation to State of the Art; d) Technical Strength; e) Significance of Work; and f) Relevance to Workshop. Every effort will be made to ensure that each paper receives multiple reviews.
Please contact the Program Chairs for any questions/clarifications
