*********************************************************************************************** Call for Papers of the Frontiers of GPU, Multi- and Many-Core Systems Workshop at CCGrid 2010

May 17-20, 2010 Melbourne, Victoria, Australia ***********************************************************************************************

Submission deadline: December 31 2009 Workshop Website: http://salsahpc.indiana.edu/FGMMS2010/

Multi- and many-core microprocessors are being deployed in a broad spectrum of applications including Clusters, Clouds and Grids. Both conventional multi- and many-core processors, such as Intel Nehalem and IBM Power7 processors, and unconventional many-core processors, such as NVIDIA Tesla and AMD FireStream GPUs, hold the promise of increasing performance through parallelism. However, GPU approaches in parallelism are distinctly different from those of conventional multi- and many-core processors, which raises new challenges: For example, how do we optimize applications for conventional multi- and many-core processors? How do we reengineer applications to take advantage of GPUs’ tremendous computing power in a reasonable cost-benefit ratio? What are effective ways of using GPUs as accelerators? The goals of this workshop are to discuss these and other issues and bring together developers of application algorithms and experts in utilizing multi- and many-core processors. Selected papers will be published in a special issue of the Journal Concurrency and Computation: Practice and Experience.

Topics of interests include (but not limited to)

* programming languages and models * innovative algorithms * data-intensive applications * optimization and debugging tools * Clouds, Grids and Clusters of many-core processors * system software * compiler technologies * runtime systems * operating systems * workload characterization * performance modeling and evaluation * homogenous and heterogeneous many-core architectures * many-core as accelerators * interconnection networks * many-core embedded systems * simulation of many-core systems * design space exploration * resource usage optimization

Important Dates

Papers Submission Due: December 31, 2009 Acceptance Notification: January 15, 2010 Camera-Ready Papers Due: February 05, 2010

Submission Guidelines

The papers should be prepared using the IEEE CS format and no longer than 6 pages. Submitted manuscripts should be structured as technical papers and may not exceed 10 letter size (8.5 x 11) pages including figures, tables and references using the IEEE format for conference proceedings (print area of 6-1/2 inches (16.51 cm) wide by 8-7/8 inches (22.51 cm) high, two-column format with columns 3-1/16 inches (7.85 cm) wide with a 3/8 inch (0.81 cm) space between them, single-spaced 10-point Times fully justified text). Submissions not conforming to these guidelines may be returned without review. Authors should submit the manuscript in PDF format and make sure that the file will print on a printer that uses letter size (8.5 x 11) paper. The official language of the meeting is English. Submitted papers will be carefully evaluated based on originality, significance to workshop topics, technical soundness, and presentation quality. Submission of the paper implies that should the paper be accepted, at least one of the authors will register and present the paper at the workshop. Please submit your paper to the FGMMS 2010 submission server ( http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=fgmms2010) via an EasyChair account.
