Call for Submissions IO500 ISC23
by IO500 Committee 30 Mar '23

30 Mar '23

Stabilization Period: Monday, April 3rd - Friday, April 14th, 2023 Submission Deadline: Tuesday, May 16st, 2023 AoE The IO500 is now accepting and encouraging submissions for the upcoming 12th semi-annual IO500 list, in conjunction with ISC23. Once again, we are also accepting submissions to the 10 Client Node Challenge to encourage the submission of small scale results. The new ranked lists will be announced at the ISC23 BoF [1]. We hope to see many new results. What's New 1. Creation of Production and Research Lists - Starting with ISC'22, we proposed a separation of the list into separate Production and Research lists. This better reflects the important distinction between storage systems that run in production environments and those that may use more experimental hardware and software configurations. At ISC23, we will formally create these two lists and users will be able to submit to either of the two lists (and their 10 client-node counterparts). Please see the requirements for each list on the IO500 rules page [3]. 2. New Submission Tool - There is now a new IO500 submission tool that improves the overall submission experience. Users can create accounts and then update and manage all of their submissions through that account. As part of this new tool, we have improved the submission fields that describe the hardware and software of the system under test. For reproducibility and analysis reasons, we now made the easily obtainable fields mandatory - data from storage servers are for users often difficult to obtain, therefore, most remain optional. As a new system, there may be quirks, please reach out on Slack or the mailing list if you see any issues. Further details will be released on the submission page [2]. 3. Reproducibility - Every submission will now receive a reproducibility score based upon the provided system details and the reproducibility questionnaire. This score will inform the community on the amount of details provided in the submission and the obtainability of the storage system. Further, this score will be used to evaluate if a submission is eligible for the Production list. 4. New Phases - We are continuing to evaluate the inclusion of optional test phases for additional key workloads - split easy/hard find phases, 4KB and 1MB random read/write phases, and concurrent metadata operations. This is called an extended run. At the moment, we collect the information to verify that additional phases do not significantly impact the results of a standard run and an extended run to facilitate comparisons between the existing and new benchmark phases. In a future release, we may include some or all of these results as part of the standard benchmark. The extended results are not currently included in the scoring of any ranked list. Background The benchmark suite is designed to be easy to run and the community has multiple active support channels to help with any questions. Please note that submissions of all sizes are welcome; the site has customizable sorting, so it is possible to submit on a small system and still get a very good per-client score, for example. Additionally, the list is about much more than just the raw rank; all submissions help the community by collecting and publishing a wider corpus of data. More details below. Following the success of the Top500 in collecting and analyzing historical trends in supercomputer technology and evolution, the IO500 was created in 2017, published its first list at SC17, and has grown continually since then. The need for such an initiative has long been known within High-Performance Computing; however, defining appropriate benchmarks has long been challenging. Despite this challenge, the community, after long and spirited discussion, finally reached consensus on a suite of benchmarks and a metric for resolving the scores into a single ranking. The multi-fold goals of the benchmark suite are as follows: 1. Maximizing simplicity in running the benchmark suite 2. Encouraging optimization and documentation of tuning parameters for performance 3. Allowing submitters to highlight their "hero run" performance numbers 4. Forcing submitters to simultaneously report performance for challenging IO patterns. Specifically, the benchmark suite includes a hero-run of both IOR and mdtest configured however possible to maximize performance and establish an upper-bound for performance. It also includes an IOR and mdtest run with highly prescribed parameters in an attempt to determine a lower performance bound. Finally, it includes a namespace search as this has been determined to be a highly sought-after feature in HPC storage systems that has historically not been well-measured. Submitters are encouraged to share their tuning insights for publication. The goals of the community are also multi-fold: 1. Gather historical data for the sake of analysis and to aid predictions of storage futures 2. Collect tuning information to share valuable performance optimizations across the community 3. Encourage vendors and designers to optimize for workloads beyond "hero runs" 4. Establish bounded expectations for users, procurers, and administrators The IO500 follows a two-staged approach. First, there will be a two-week stabilization period during which we encourage the community to verify that the benchmark runs properly on a variety of storage systems. During this period the benchmark may be updated based upon feedback from the community. The final benchmark will then be released. We expect that runs compliant with the rules made during the stabilization period will be valid as a final submission unless a significant defect is found. 10 Client Node I/O Challenge The 10 Client Node Challenge is conducted using the regular IO500 benchmark, however, with the rule that exactly 10 client nodes must be used to run the benchmark. You may use any shared storage with any number of servers. We will announce the results in the Production and Research lists as well as in separate derived lists. Birds-of-a-Feather Once again, we encourage you to submit [2] to join our community, and to attend the ISC23 BoF [1], where we will announce the new IO500 Production and Research lists and their 10 client node counterparts. The current list includes results from twenty different storage system types and 70 institutions. We hope that the upcoming list grows even more.

Anyone interested in parallel programming and/or Chapel is encouraged to attend CHIUW, from long-term enthusiasts to those simply curious to learn more. This year's CHIUW will be online and there will be no registration fees. TOPICS Topics of interest for CHIUW include: - User experiences writing applications in Chapel - Improvements to the Chapel language, compiler, and runtime - Performance or benchmark studies involving Chapel - Libraries or tools for Chapel programmers - Comparisons to other parallel programming models - Uses of Chapel in education - Related topics likely to be of interest to Chapel enthusiasts - Hands-on activities for the Coding Day FORMAT CHIUW 2023 is an independent, virtual workshop consisting of hands-on exercises and participant-driven sessions (Coding Day, June 1st) and Chapel-related presentations and sessions (Workshop Day, June 2nd). Those interested in submitting papers and Coding Day activities should refer to the Submissions section below. Other workshop activities will include: - a keynote talk - a pre-workshop introduction to Chapel for those new to the language - a "State of the Chapel Project" talk - a free-form community discussion on Chapel priorities and next steps All participants at CHIUW will be expected to follow the Chapel Code of Conduct: https://github.com/chapel-lang/chapel/blob/main/CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md SUBMISSIONS Submissions to CHIUW 2023 can be made in the following forms: 1. Research papers: 5–8 pages, excluding references Research papers can describe novel R&D being undertaken by the authors, or an update on ongoing efforts that are of interest to Chapel community. Papers will be evaluated by the program committee using typical standards for academic research papers, including plagiarism (and self-plagiarism). Research papers should be prepared using the ACM conference submission format. We strongly recommend checking that each line is numbered to ease and enrich the review process. Acceptance to CHIUW 2023 does not preclude papers from being published elsewhere, and authors are encouraged to submit their work to other venues. 2. Talk proposals: 1–4 pages, excluding references (if any) To propose a talk at CHIUW, submit an extended abstract describing what you intend to present. CHIUW talks can preview work that is not yet ready for publication, recap work that the speaker has already published, and/or describe work that is not intended for publication. Talk proposals will be evaluated by the program and steering committees based on their expected level of interest to the CHIUW audience. Talk proposals should be formatted reasonably, where using the same template as the research papers is an option, though not a requirement. 3. Coding Day activities: The CHIUW Coding Day is an opportunity to engage with an experienced Chapel developer such as a member of Chapel's core team on a hands-on coding task or to gain in-depth experience with some aspects of Chapel. Examples include porting a modest amount of existing code, writing an example distributed parallel program to process files in parallel, or asking questions about Chapel features and example codes. Please submit your research paper or talk proposal via EasyChair: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=chiuw2023.

28 Mar '23

========================================================================== CALL FOR PAPERS 21th International Workshop on Algorithms, Models and Tools for Parallel Computing on Heterogeneous Platforms HeteroPar'2023 August 28, 2023, Limassol, Cyprus in conjunction with EuroPar 2023 https://icl.utk.edu/workshops/heteropar2023/index.html ============================================================================== * Submission of manuscripts: May 20, 2023 * Notification of acceptance: June 30, 2023 * Preliminary camera-ready version: July 31, 2023 * Date of workshop: August 28, 2023 * LNCS camera-ready papers: TBD, 2023 * Journal Special Issue first version: TBD, 2023 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Heterogeneity is emerging as one of the most profound and challenging characteristics of today's parallel environments. From the macro level, where networks of distributed computers composed of diverse node architecture are interconnected with potentially heterogeneous networks, to the micro level, where deeper memory hierarchies and various accelerator architectures are increasingly common, the impact of heterogeneity on all computing tasks is increasing rapidly. Traditional parallel algorithms, programming environments and tools, designed for legacy homogeneous multiprocessors, will at best achieve a small fraction of the efficiency and the potential performance that we should expect from parallel computing in tomorrow's highly diversified and mixed environments. New ideas, innovative algorithms, and specialized programming environments and tools are needed to efficiently use these new and multifarious parallel architectures. The workshop is intended to be a forum for researchers working on algorithms, programming languages, tools, and theoretical models aimed at efficiently solving problems on heterogeneous platforms. Topics ------ The topics to be covered include but are not limited to: * Heterogeneous parallel programming paradigms and models * Scheduling on heterogeneous resources * Languages, libraries, and interfaces for different heterogeneous parallel programming models * Performance models and their integration into the design of efficient parallel algorithms for heterogeneous platforms * Parallel algorithms for heterogeneous and/or hierarchical multi-core systems, including manycores and hardware accelerators (FPGAs, GPUs, AI accelerators, etc.) * Parallel algorithms for efficient problem solving on heterogeneous platforms (numerical linear algebra, nonlinear systems, fast transforms, computational biology, data mining, artificial intelligence, multimedia, etc.) * Software engineering for heterogeneous parallel systems * Real-world applications on heterogeneous platforms * Algorithms, models and tools for energy optimization on heterogeneous platforms * Multi-objective optimization of applications on heterogeneous platforms * Integration of parallel and distributed computing on heterogeneous platforms * Experience of porting parallel software from supercomputers to heterogeneous platforms * Fault tolerance of parallel computations on heterogeneous platforms Submission Guidelines --------------------- Authors are encouraged to submit original, unpublished research or overviews on Algorithms, Models and Tools for Parallel Computing on Heterogeneous Platforms. Manuscripts should be limited to 12 pages (including references) in Springer LNCS stylesheet and submitted through the EasyChair Conference System. Submission link: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=europar2023workshops For further questions, please contact the program chair. Publication ----------- Accepted papers that are presented at the workshop will be published in revised form in a special Euro-Par Workshop Volume in the Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) series after the Euro-Par conference. The minimum length of the papers to be included in the formal proceedings is 10 pages.
