Therefore, to fully utilize multicore and manycore hardware, parallel programming models that allow easy transition of sequential programs to parallel programs with good performance and enable development of error-free codes are urgently needed. This workshop is dedicated primarily to gather researchers and practitioners addressing the main challenges and share experiences in the emerging multicore and manycore software engineering and distributed programming paradigm. This workshop aims to provide a discussion forum for people interested in programming environments, models, tools and applications specifically designed for parallel multicore and manycore hardware environments. Selected best papers of PMAM will be considered for publication in a special issue of highly ranked journal. The program committee cordially invites any novel research ideas in (but not limited to) the following topics: programming models and systems for multicore, manycore, and clusters of multicore/manycore parallel machine learning and AI algorithms parallel resource management on large-scale datacenters multicore and manycore software engineering parallel and distributed algorithms on GPU, FPGA, and multicore clusters parallel libraries and frameworks performance analysis, efficiency and effectiveness massively parallel processing on multicore/manycore systems and clusters automated parallelization and compilation techniques debugging and performance autotuning tools and techniques for multicore/manycore applications parallel algorithms, applications and benchmarks on multicore/manycore systems runtime power/energy management on multicore/manycore systems and clusters fault tolerance and resilience Proceedings All accepted papers will be published in the PMAM 2022 proceedings by the ACM Digital Library, and will be included in the Elsevier databases Scopus and Compendex (EI indexed).

Programming models and tools: Programming paradigms and tools for heterogeneous systems; middleware and runtime systems; performance-abstraction tradeoff; interoperability of heterogeneous software environments; workflows; dataflows. Resource management and algorithms for heterogeneous systems: Parallel algorithms for solving problems on heterogeneous systems (e.g., multicores, hybrid clusters, grids or clouds); strategies for scheduling and allocation on heterogeneous 2D and 3D multicore architectures; static and dynamic scheduling and resource management for large-scale and parallel heterogeneous systems. Modeling, characterization, and optimizations: Performance models and their use in the design of parallel and distributed algorithms for heterogeneous platforms, characterizations and optimizations for improving the time to solve a problem (e.g., throughput, latency, runtime), modeling and optimizing electric consumption (e.g., power, energy); modeling for failure management (e.g., fault tolerance, recovery, reliability); modeling for security in heterogeneous platforms.

CfP: Deadline extended for SPMA @ EuroSys 2022
by Istvan, Zsolt 09 Feb '22

09 Feb '22

We cordially invite you to consider submitting your recent work to SPMA 2022, to be held co-located with EuroSys'22 on the on the 5th of April in Rennes, France. As in 2020, the workshop operates with the new name of "Systems for Post-Moore Architectures" or SPMA for short. The core topics of the workshop are the same as in previous years but we'd like to put a special emphasis on non-CPU based processing. See the workshop website for more details: https://sites.google.com/view/spma22eurosys/home Please note that this year the workshop deadline has been extended to *18th of February*. We are planning for an *in person* event, like the main EuroSys conference. The program will feature short and long papers with (potentially preliminary) new results, as well as keynote speakers. As in previous years, the papers accepted to the workshop do not appear in the official proceedings, to avoid "self scooping" for preliminary works. Greetings from SPMA organizers (and apologies if you received this email from multiple sources), Antonio Barbalace, Mark Silberstein and Zsolt Istvan

08 Feb '22

[Please accept our apologies for multiple postings.] - NEWS: DEADLINE EXTENDED TO FEBRUARY 18 - NEWS: KEYNOTE TALKS announced: Gennady Pekhimenko and Mostofa Patwary CALL FOR PAPERS ******************************************************************************* ExSAIS 2022: Workshop on Extreme Scaling of AI for Science https://hpc.pnl.gov/exsais/ June 3, 2022 Co-Located with IPDPS 2022 Lyon, France ****************************************************************************** Call for Papers --------------- The evolution of machine perception to machine learning and reasoning, and ultimately machine intelligence, has a potential to significantly impact acceleration and advancement of autonomous scientific discovery and the operation of scientific instruments. While machine reasoning will enable intelligent systems to better understand and interact with their physical world, machine intelligence through modeling, simulation and automation, closes the gap between experiments, extreme computing, and scientific discovery. In order to usher in this new era of autonomous science, advances in several areas of artificial intelligence and other disciplines e.g., high-performance computing, data engineering need to come together. Therefore, the goal of this workshop is to bring together researchers from diverse backgrounds to enable extreme scaling of AI for science. This workshop will address the overarching goal of enabling semi-autonomous and autonomous AI-driven predictive and prescriptive scientific discovery at scale by integrating extreme-scale heterogeneous and reconfigurable computing paradigms, multiscale mathematics, physics-based simulation, data sciences and engineering to address challenges across science, scientific instruments, and security domains e.g., biology, chemistry, and material science. Specific areas of interest include: * Algorithms: Advance extreme-scale Artificial Intelligence through algorithmic development in the areas of probabilistic reasoning, multimodal representation learning, natural language processing, robotics, decision making, combinatorial optimization and human-machine interaction. * Implementation and deployment: Enable scalable Artificial Intelligence through advances in distributed and parallel AI algorithms and tools, heterogeneous and reconfigurable computing platforms and paradigms, Exascale systems, and compilers and system software for extreme-scale AI/ML algorithms. * Applications: Discuss application use cases in science domains of importance including computational biology, molecular chemistry, material science, epidemiology, energy and physics. The workshop seeks short and long papers spanning all areas of scaling AI for science, engineering and security domains including but not limited to: * Parallel and distributed algorithms for machine learning, machine reasoning, and machine intelligence at scale. Specific examples include: probabilistic reasoning, data analytics, knowledge representation learning, multi-modal analysis, natural language processing, robotics, decision making, combinatorial optimization and human-machine interaction * Software tools, compilers and system software to enable AI for machine perception and reasoning at scale. Specific examples include PyTorch (and Glow), TensorFlow (and XLA), CNTK, TVM, and the MLIR framework. * Application case studies in all areas of science and engineering such as biology, chemistry, material science, high energy physics, and climate security .
