Third International Workshop on Automatic Performance Tuning

(iWAPT2008)

http://iwapt.org/2008

Oct. 1st, 2008, EPOCHAL TSUKUBA, Japan

in conjunction with IEEE Cluster 2008

With the rapid increase in the complexity and diversity of computing environments, from embedded systems and multicore processors to grid systems, development of software that can fully exploit the potential performance of the hardware has become a difficult and time-consuming task. As a means of overcoming this difficulty, automatic performance tuning technology to enable the software to self-adapt to the computing environments has recently aroused much interest.

iWAPT2008 is the third of a series of international workshops that focuses on automatic tuning technology. The goal of this workshop is to provide opportunities for researchers and practitioners in all fields related to automatic performance tuning to exchange ideas and experiences. Papers reporting original ideas and results are solicited. Invited talks by leading researchers are also planned.

<Topics of Interest>

includes, but not limited to, the followings:

Performance modeling, adaptive algorithms and automatic tuning in:

- Numerical, scientific and engineering computations
