CFP: 3rd Workshop on Visual Performance Analysis (VPA) at SC16 (deadline Aug. 05)
by Joshua Levine 25 Jul '16

25 Jul '16

========================================================================== Call for Papers 3rd Workshop on Visual Performance Analysis (VPA) Held in conjunction with SC16: The International Conference on High Performance Computing, Networking, Storage and Analysis Salt Lake City, UT, USA November 18, 2016 http://cedmav.org/events/vpa-2016.html Submission Deadline: August 5, 2016 ========================================================================== Over the last decades an incredible amount of resources has been devoted to building ever more powerful supercomputers. However, exploiting the full capabilities of these machines is becoming exponentially more difficult with each new generation of hardware. To help understand and optimize the behavior of massively parallel simulations the performance analysis community has created a wide range of tools and APIs to collect performance data, such as flop counts, network traffic or cache behavior at the largest scale. However, this success has created a new challenge, as the resulting data is far too large and too complex to be analyzed in a straightforward manner. Therefore, new automatic analysis approaches must be developed to allow application developers to intuitively understand the multiple, interdependent effects that their algorithmic choices have on the final performance. This workshop will bring together researchers and practitioners from the areas of performance analysis, application optimization, visualization, and data analysis and provide a forum to discuss novel ideas on how to improve performance understanding, analysis and optimization through novel techniques in scientific and information visualization. Workshop Topics: - Scalable displays of performance data - Interactive visualization of performance data - Data models to enable data analysis and visualization - Graph representation of unstructured performance data - Collection and representation of meta data to enable fine grained attribution - Message trace visualization - Memory and network traffic visualization - Representation of hardware architectures Paper Submission: We solicit two types of papers both covering original and previously unpublished ideas: 8 page regular papers and 4 page position papers. To be considered, your manuscript should be formatted according to the double-column IEEE format for Conference Proceedings (IEEEtran LaTeX Class (template) V1.8 packages and IEEEtran V1.12 BibTeX (bibliography)). Margins and font sizes should not be modified. The templates for "IEEEtran LaTeX Class (template) V1.8 packages and IEEEtran V1.12 BibTeX (bibliography)" can be found at http://www.ieee.org/conferences_events/conferences/publishing/templates.html All papers must be submitted through Easychair at: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=vpa2016 Important Dates - August 5th: submission deadline for full papers - September 5th: notification of acceptance - October 3rd: final paper and copyrights due Workshop Organizers - Peer-Timo Bremer, Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory - Judit Gimenez, Barcelona Supercomputing Center - Joshua A.

Call for Chapters - Research Advances in Cloud Computing
by Dr. Rajkumar Buyya 23 Jul '16

23 Jul '16

******************* Call for Book Chapters ********************* Research Advances in Cloud Computing Website: http://www.cloudbus.org/racc/ Publisher: Springer Editors: Sanjay Chaudhary, Gaurav Somani, and Rajkumar Buyya, ******************* Call for Book Chapters ********************* Introduction =============== Cloud computing is a novel computing paradigm which has changed the way enterprise or INTERNET computing used to be seen. Cloud Computing as a term was first coined by John McArthy of IBM in 1960s where he envisaged that “computing” power will be used as an utility one day. Today, for almost all the sectors in the world, cloud computing is synonym to their IT implementations. Today, public cloud market share is expected to reach $240bn by the end of year 2016. The success story of cloud computing as a technology is credited to the long term efforts of computing research community across the globe. SaaS (Software as a Service), PaaS (Platform as a Service) and IaaS (Infrastructure as a Service) are the three major cloud product sectors. Each one of these product sectors have their effects and reach to various industries. If forecasts are to be believed than more than two third of all the enterprises across the globe will be entirely run in cloud by 2026. These enthusiastic figures have led to huge fund generation for research and development in cloud computing and related technologies. University researchers, research labs in industry and scholars across the globe have recreated the whole computing world into a new cloud enabled world. This has been only possible by coordinated efforts into this direction. Today, almost every university across the globe having computer science curriculum have incorporated cloud computing and its related technologies into their curriculum. Additionally, there are extensive efforts on innovation and technology creation in the direction of cloud computing. These efforts are much visible in the reputed cloud computing research platforms like International conferences and journals. We, the editors of the book have also started contributing in this niche computing area since its inception. Prof. Rajkumar Buyya is one of the most cited and visible researcher in the area with more than 48,900 citations in the area of cloud computing and distributed systems (http://www.buyya.com/) He has been one of the pioneers in the area to bring glory to the field by contributing to multiple facets of development of cloud computing technologies and their implementations. Additionally, Prof. Buyya has served as the foundation editor-in-chief of the “IEEE Transactions on Cloud Computing (TCC)”. The other two editors of the book also have strong contributions in the area of resource allocation and cloud computing security as well as have highly cited research work. One of their works related to cloud computing resource allocation has been among the most cited articles on Elsevier Future Generation Computer Systems (FGCS). We as editors, feel that there is a significant need to systematically collect and present quality research findings in the area of recent advances in cloud computing area to give wide benefit to a huge community of researchers, educators, practitioners and industries. Even though there are large numbers of journals and conferences available in the area to showcase ones research contribution in the area of cloud computing. However, there is a lack of comprehensive and in-depth tutored analysis on many of the research areas in the field of cloud computing. The proposed book on “Research Advances in Cloud Computing” will be an edited volume of having chapters from various top trends, designs, implementations, outcomes and directions in the various areas of cloud computing. We have planned the book in the form of around 16 to 18 chapters each expected to be 20 to 25 pages dedicated to various facets of cloud computing.

*Computational Approaches for Cancer Workshop (CAFCW-2016)* Held in conjunction with the SC16: The International Conference on High Performance Computing, Networking, Storage and Analysis November 13, 2016, Salt Lake City, Utah, USA SC16 Conference Link: http://sc16.supercomputing.org Workshop Information Link: http://www.scworkshops.net/cancer2016 *Important Dates:* · Submission: September 1, 2016 at https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=cafcw2016 · Notification of Acceptance: September 15, 2016 · Workshop: November 13, 2016 The need for a workshop focused on computational approaches for cancer has become increasingly important as the drive towards precision medicine has accelerated, the challenges in cancer research and clinical application requiring computational solution are rapidly growing, and the pursuit of effective predictive models for complex biological systems begin to inform future exascale computing requirements. The role of computation in cancer research has only become more pronounced with the National Strategic Computing Initiative, the Precision Medicine Initiative, the Exascale Initiative from the DOE and the announcement of the "cancer moonshot" at the 2016 US Presidential State of the Union Address. Recent activities announced at the June 28 Cancer Moonshot Summit highlight the important role of advanced computing in accelerating advances in cancer research and clinical applications. ( https://www.whitehouse.gov/the-press-office/2016/06/28/fact-sheet-cancer-mo… ) In the workshop, we bring together the computational community interested in the use high-performance computing, analytics, predictive modeling, and large datasets in cancer research and clinical applications. The participation in the workshop is inherently inter-disciplinary, with the common interest in cancer and computation the unifying theme. As such, the workshop provides rich opportunities for attendees to learn about future directions, current applications and challenges and build collaborations. Maintaining a perspective of translation of ideas to clinical application, the workshop will include involvement of interests from the research, clinical and regulatory areas *Call for Papers* The workshop aims to recognize the critical role that cross-disciplinary partnerships, shared effort and team science play in advancing the cancer research and clinical applications through use of computational methods, data science, high-performance computing and/or cutting-edge computational technologies. In creating this call for papers, topics of interest are presented in tandem, further emphasizing the cross-disciplinary opportunities for innovative submissions. Topics of interest for workshop submissions include, but are certainly not limited to combinations of the following cancer and computational topics: *Cancer Research and Clinical Applications* Next Generation Sequencing Analysis Single Cell Sequencing Proteomics, Genomics, and Metabolomics Flow Cytometry High-throughput Screening Cyro-Electron Microscopy Multi-modal Biological Imaging Structural Biology Biological-scale Molecular Dynamics Predictive Oncology Cancer Therapeutic Development Protein-protein Interaction Cellular Signaling Cell-level Predictive Modeling Cancer Imaging Digital Pathology Pharmacodynamic Modeling Pharmacogenomic Modeling and Analysis Electronic Health and Medical Records mHealth and Health Sensor Networks Bioinformatics Cancer Diagnostics Therapeutic Response Systems Biology *Computational Approaches* High-performance Parallel Computing Cloud Computing Exascale and Extreme-scale Computing Machine and/or Deep Learning Cognitive Computing Data Integration and Delivery Image Processing Pattern Recognition Heterogeneous Computing (GPGPU, FPGA, etc.) Programming Models Visualization Data Imputation Uncertainty Quantification Multi-scale Predictive Modeling Integrated Systems Simulations Complex Systems Modeling Integration Frameworks Computational Workflows Information and Data Security Automata and Finite State Machines Novel Mathematical and Statistical Models Data Science and Analytics Graph and/or Network Analysis Model Validation and Verification Submitted extended abstracts of papers will be reviewed and selected for presentation in the Computational Approaches for Cancer Workshop held as part of the SC 16 Workshop Program,November 13, 2016 in Salt Lake City, Utah. *Submission Guidelines* Authors are invited to submit extended abstracts in English structured as technical papers limited to a maximum of two letter size pages (not including bibliography). A bibliography should be included and use the IEEE format for conference proceedings. Submissions not conforming to these guidelines may be returned without consideration or review. Abstracts will be reviewed and judged on correctness, originality, technical strength, alignment to expressed cross-disciplinary aims in the paper call, quality of presentation and interest to workshop attendees. Submitted abstracts may incorporate unpublished new advances, insight and/or original research findings. Submissions received after the due date, exceeding the prescribed length, or not appropriately structured may also be returned without consideration or review. In submitting the extended abstract, the authors acknowledge that at least one author of an accepted submission will register for and attend the workshop. Extended abstracts should be submitted electronically as PDF documents at https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=cafcw2016 *Note to submitters: *Submissions will go through the usual workshop review process. Once accepted, you will be invited to present your work. Given the cross-disciplinary nature of the topic, the organizers are working on opportunities to publish accepted papers in post-conference workshop proceedings, affording authors the opportunity to update contributions based on feedback during the workshop.
