Workshop on High Performance Interconnects
for Distributed Computing (HPI-DC'09)
in conjunction with Cluster 2009
August 31, 2009, New Orleans, Louisiana
http://www.cercs.gatech.edu/hpidc2009
*********************************************************************
Call for Papers
*********************************************************************
The emergence of 10.0 GigE and above, InfiniBand and other
high-performance interconnection technologies, programmable NICs and
networking platforms, and protocols like DDP and RDMA over IP, make it
possible to create tightly linked systems across physical distances
that exceed those of traditional single cluster or server
systems. These technologies can deliver communication capabilities
that achieve the performance levels needed by high end applications in
enterprise systems and like those produced by the high performance
computing community. Furthermore, the manycore nature of next
generation platforms and the creation of distributed cloud computing
infrastructure will greatly increase the demand for high performance
communication capabilities over wide area distances.
The purpose of this workshop is to explore the confluence of
distributed computing and communications technologies with high
performance interconnects, as applicable or applied to realistic high
end applications. The intent is to create a venue that will act as a
bridge between researchers developing tools and platforms for
high-performance distributed computing, end user applications seeking
high performance solutions, and technology providers aiming to improve
interconnect and networking technologies for future systems. The hope
is to foster knowledge creation and intellectual interchanges between
HPC and Cloud computing end users and technology developers, in the
specific domain of high performance distributed interconnects.
Topics of interest include but are not limited to:
# Hardware/software architectures for communication infrastructures
for HPC and Cloud Computing
# Data and control protocols for interactive and large data volume
applications
# Novel devices and technologies to enhance interconnect properties
# Interconnect-level issues when extending high performance beyond
single machines, including architecture, protocols, services, QoS,
and security
# Remote storage (like iSCSI), remote databases, and datacenters,
etc.
# Development tools, programming environments and models (like PGAS,
OpenShmem, Hadoop, etc.), ranging from programming language support
to simulation environments.
PAPER SUBMISSIONS:
HPI-DC invites authors to submit original and unpublished work. Please
