WPDM 2019
The Third International Workshop on Parallel and Distributed Data
Mining (WPDM 2019)

CALL FOR PAPERS
The Third Workshop on Parallel and Distributed Data Mining (WPDM
2019) will be held in conjunction with The 19th International
Conference on Computational Science and Its Applications (ICCSA
2019),
http://www.iccsa.org
Saint Petersburg University, Saint Petersburg, Russia July 1-4
2019
Final submission Deadline: February 17, 2019
SCOPE AND OBJECTIVES
The Workshop on Parallel and Distributed Data Mining is an
international forum which brings together researchers and
practitioners working on different high-performance aspects of
data mining algorithms, enabling novel applications. Data mining
techniques and algorithms to process huge amount of data in order
to extract useful and interesting information have become popular
in many different contexts. Algorithms are required to make sense
of data automatically and in efficient ways. Nonetheless, even
though sequential computer systems performance is improving, they
are not suitable to keep up with the increase in the demand for
data mining applications and the data size. Moreover, the main
memory of sequential systems may not be enough to hold all the
data related to current applications. Therefore, there is an
increasing interest in the design and implementation of parallel
data mining algorithms. On parallel computers, by exploiting the
vast aggregate main memory and processing power of processors and
accelerators, parallel algorithms can easily address both the
running time and memory requirement issues. Anyway, parallelizing
existing algorithms in order to achieve good performance and
scalability with regard to massive datasets is not trivial.
Indeed, it is of paramount importance a good data organization and
decomposition strategy in order to balance the workload while
minimizing data dependences. Another concern is related to
minimizing synchronization and communication overhead. Finally,
I/O costs should be minimized as well. The Workshop will allow
exchanging ideas and results related to on-going research,
focusing on high-performance aspects of data mining algorithms and
applications. Creating breakthrough parallel algorithms for
high-performance data mining applications requires addressing
several key computing problems which may lead to novel solutions
and new insights in interdisciplinary applications. The focus of
the workshop is on all forms of advances in high-performance data
mining algorithms an
d applications, and related topics.
The WPDM Workshop topics include (but are not limited to) the
following:
- Parallel data mining algorithms using MPI and/or OpenMP
- Parallel data mining algorithms targeting GPUs and many-cores
accelerators
- Parallel data mining applications exploiting FPGA
- Distributed data mining algorithms
- Benchmarking and performance studies of high-performance data
mining applications
- Novel programming paradigms to support high-performance
computing for data mining
- Performance models for high-performance data mining applications
and middleware
- Programming models, tools, and environments for high-performance
computing in data mining
- Caching, streaming, pipelining, and other optimization
techniques for data management in high-performance computing for
data mining
