Deadline Extension: 4th Workshop on Disruptive Memory Systems (DIMES'26) @ SOSP'26 - Call for Papers
by Marcel Köppen 29 May '26

29 May '26

Fourth Workshop on Disruptive Memory Systems (DIMES) Co-located with the 32nd ACM Symposium on Operating Systems Principles (SOSP 2026) Prague, Czechia, September 29th, 2026 ==== Important Dates ==== ** Extended deadline: June 5, 2026 ** --------------------------------- -------------------- Paper/demo submission deadline: June 5, 2026 Acceptance notification: July 10, 2026 Final camera-ready paper due: August 28, 2026 Workshop presentations: September 29, 2026 --------------------------------- -------------------- ==== Call for Contributions ==== New system software is essential for using emerging memory technologies effectively. Novel memory types, interfaces, and capabilities are challenging long-held assumptions underlying memory system design and operation. Instead of traditional volatile, passive, and largely homogeneous DDR DRAM, future systems will increasingly include integrated HBM, cost-effective local memory tiers, and disaggregated far memory. “In-memory” and “near-memory” processing promise low-power parallel processing that will scale with the amount of active data. New memory interconnects such as UALink and CXL will enable independently scaling compute and memory and permit heterogeneous pooling and sharing of memory between machines. Beyond lower energy consumption and higher processing power, these memory innovations also promise to disrupt with lower cost, higher capacity, or higher reliability. The Workshop on Disruptive Memory Systems (DIMES) is intended to be a forum to discuss new architectures, abstractions, and interfaces for system software to enable and exploit these new memory technologies in future software. The scope of DIMES covers system software for all computing domains: cloud, HPC, edge, desktop, mobile and embedded systems. ==== Topics of Interest ==== DIMES focuses on the system software aspects of disruptive memory technologies. Suggested topics for submissions include all aspects of system software that are affected by emerging memory technologies in cloud, HPC, edge, desktop, mobile and embedded systems, and related domains. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: - memory system design - memory management abstractions - operating system support for memory management - memory-centric programming models - emerging memory technologies - memory-intensive applications - evaluation of memory-centric systems We encourage authors to submit papers on concepts, early-stage work, and demos of prototype systems. ==== Submissions ==== The workshop allows two types of submissions: papers & demos. Submitted papers must represent original material that is not currently under review in any other conference or journal, and has not been previously published. All paper submissions should be written in English and follow the two-column ACM SIGPLAN article style (https://www.acm.org/publications/proceedings-template, acmart LaTeX style with options sigplan,anonymous,10pt). Papers must not exceed the length of six (6) printed pages plus references using a 10-point font. The CCS Concepts, Keywords, and ACM Reference Format sections are not required in submissions.

by Matthew Larsen 29 May '26

29 May '26

https://urldefense.us/v3/__https://isav-workshop.github.io/2026/__;!!G_uCfs… ============================================ ISAV'26: In Situ Analysis and Visualization 12th Annual Workshop at SC26 ============================================ WORKSHOP THEME -------------------------------------------- HPC platforms and applications have reached such large scale, complexity, and heterogeneity that a major challenge has become the wide gap between our ability to compute extreme-scale data and our ability to gain insight from it to make timely, data-driven decisions. A well-known, yet challenging, approach to visual analysis, learning, and processing is performing the tasks in situ -- i.e., while the data is still in memory, potentially in lieu of saving the raw data out. Since 2015, ISAV has fostered a community of in situ developers, practitioners, researchers, and users of in situ methods and infrastructure, connecting industry, government laboratories, and academia across all career levels. Through presentations, discussions, and peer-reviewed proceedings of research findings, lessons learned, and early ideas, ISAV illuminates new requirements and gaps driven by science and engineering applications and fosters the application of in situ methods. This is the 12th year of the ISAV workshop. Continuing from last year, we now invite full paper submissions and in situ methods on ML/AI. We are also expanding the lightning talks track to a "Community Talks" track, inviting members to share early research ideas, hands-on practical learnings, and insights into creative solutions, with more emphasis on practical experiences and knowledge sharing. In situ methods are in high demand: - In training ML/AI surrogate models or leveraging ML/AI for analysis - In system-scale 3D visualization for Exascale supercomputers - In cloud products providing responsive user experiences - In tightly coupled digital twins and computational sciences Exploration in the in situ space is needed to address multifaceted goals: (1) To preserve important elements of simulations (2) To significantly reduce the data needed to preserve these elements (3) To offer as much flexibility as possible for post-processing exploration (4) To accelerate the gathering of insights for timely decision-making ============================================ PARTICIPATION / CALL FOR PAPERS ============================================ ISAV'26 invites three submission types: Full Papers Up to 10 pages (including references) Short Papers 5 pages + 1 page references Community Talks Abstract, 1 page (including references) Full papers should present research results, identify opportunities or challenges, or present case studies/best practices for in situ methods. Short papers may cover the same topics or document late-breaking ideas and early progress on novel concepts. Community talks invite members to share early research ideas and practical learnings, with emphasis on knowledge sharing. Full and short papers will appear in the workshop proceedings; all authors will be invited to give an oral presentation at the workshop. AREAS OF INTEREST Methods, Algorithms & Synthesis between HPC & ML In situ analysis (feature detection, data reduction/compression, data summarization, ML training) and scientific visualization using data-driven, surrogate-assisted, statistical, or time-varying methods. Applications & Workflows Applications (simulations, data processing, scientific user facilities) and integrations into digital twins. Workflows for complex in situ processing pipelines, including resilience and reproducibility. Scalability Requirements Scalability, resource utilization, data flow, and simplified access to extreme heterogeneous resources. Real-time coupling of data, surrogates, and algorithms. Case Studies, Data Sources & Best Practices Examples of solving specific science challenges with in situ methods/infrastructure. Deployments and software engineering. Software Evolution & Standardization In situ libraries from research prototypes to production quality. Challenges, gaps, API designs, and community standards. Enabling Hardware & Emerging Architectures Hardware and system architectures enabling in situ processing. Efficient use of accelerators and heterogeneous architectures across HPC, data center, or edge. ============================================ REVIEW PROCESS ============================================ All submissions undergo peer review by three domain experts, evaluated on: relevance, technical soundness, creativity, originality, and impact. ============================================ IMPORTANT DATES ============================================ Submission deadline (all types) 07 Aug 2026 Author notification 04 Sep 2026 Camera-ready copy due (FIRM) 25 Sep 2026 ISAV'26 workshop Week of SC26 ============================================

CFP: SPGAI 2026: Secure and Private System Design for Generative & Agentic AI - June 15, 2026
by Mengxin Zheng 27 May '26

27 May '26

Secure and Private System Design for Generative & Agentic AI<https://urldefense.us/v3/__https://www.qlou.org/SPGAI/__;!!G_uCfscf7eWS!dqh… > Time: 9:00 - 17:00 (PDT), July 26, 2026 Location: Mtg Room 101A, Long Beach (Co-located with DAC 2026<https://urldefense.us/v3/__https://dac.com/2026__;!!G_uCfscf7eWS!dqhKdQ57Dd… >) Generative and agentic AI are reshaping computing at every layer, from research and infrastructure to the design of the systems themselves. As these capabilities are embedded into how silicon, software, and full-stack platforms get built and verified, both the threat surface and the means to defend it are being rewritten. The SPGAI 2026 Workshop, co-hosted with DAC, confronts this dual frontier: hardening AI agents and the artifacts they generate against new and largely unmapped attack surfaces, while harnessing those same agents as a force multiplier for vulnerability discovery, secure-by-construction generation, automated compliance, and trustworthy verification. The program is organized around three intertwined themes and welcomes contributions across EDA, chip and SoC security, quantum and neuromorphic computing, electro-optic co-design, and embedded and cyber-physical systems. Topics of Interest We solicit original contributions on topics including, but not limited to: Theme 1 — Secure, Private, and Trustworthy AI and Agents * Privacy-preserving training and fine-tuning of foundation models for design (federated, differentially private, and confidential computing approaches) * Defenses against prompt injection, jailbreaks, and tool misuse in agentic design workflows * Secure multi-agent orchestration, sandboxing, and least-privilege tool use for design automation * Trust, alignment, and reliability of LLMs and agents in safety- and security-critical design loops * Confidentiality of proprietary IP, netlists, and source code during LLM-aided generation * Inference-time defenses, guardrails, and verifiable reasoning for design agents * Robustness against data poisoning, model extraction, and supply-chain attacks on generative design pipelines Theme 2 — Securing the Artifacts of AI and Agents * Detection, attribution, and watermarking of LLM- and agent-generated RTL, HLS, layouts, and software * Hardware Trojans, backdoors, and malicious patterns introduced (intentionally or unintentionally) by generative AI * Verification, formal methods, and testing tailored to AI-generated designs * Provenance, traceability, and reproducibility of AI-generated design artifacts * Copyright, licensing, and IP-leakage analysis of generated code and designs * Secure release and open-sourcing practices for AI-generated artifacts and benchmarks * Privacy leakage and memorization analysis in LLM-generated designs Theme 3 — Generative and Agentic AI for Security, Privacy, and Trustworthiness * LLM- and agent-driven vulnerability discovery, fuzzing, and exploit generation for hardware and software * Generative AI for secure-by-construction RTL, HLS, EDA scripting, and physical design * Agentic workflows for security verification, side-channel analysis, and threat modeling * LLMs for cryptographic protocol design, post-quantum migration, and confidential computing * AI-aided regulatory compliance, audit, and policy enforcement for design and IT automation * Generative and agentic AI for privacy-enhancing technologies (PETs) * LLM-aided security of emerging technologies: quantum, neuromorphic, and electro-optic systems * Datasets, benchmarks, and competitions for evaluating secure and private generative/agentic design Important Dates Paper Submission: June 15, 2026 (AoE) Notification of Acceptance: June 30, 2026 (AoE) Submission Instructions The workshop invites regular papers of 2 to 6 pages in the IEEE Conference format (IEEE templates<https://urldefense.us/v3/__https://www.ieee.org/conferences/publishing/temp… >), with page limits excluding references. Submissions are not anonymized: author names, affiliations, and acknowledgments should be included in the paper. We encourage submissions with a commitment to open and reproducible research, including datasets, models, and methods. Papers with open-source implementations will be highlighted at the workshop. Submissions will be handled via EasyChair<https://urldefense.us/v3/__https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=spgai202… > by June 15, 2026 (AoE). Policy on Submissions SPGAI 2026 expects previously unpublished papers describing original research, but concurrent submissions to other venues or already-published papers are also permitted. Accepted papers will not have proceedings. Authors of accepted papers will have the opportunity to have oral presentation or a poster at the workshop. Selected authors may also be invited to co-author a Systematization of Knowledge (SoK) paper on the topic together with the workshop organizers.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: ● Pedagogical issues in incorporating HPC and PDC in core courses of undergraduate and graduate education for all/any computing degrees. ● Evidence-based educational practices and innovative teaching methods in relevant fields. ● Professional training and workforce development initiatives. ● Reports on integrating HPC and PDC topics into core CS/CE courses and into other STEM fields and areas. ● Pedagogical tools, materials, infrastructures, languages, and projects for HPC/PDC/DS/AI/ML/IoT/Edge education. ● Employers' experiences and expectations regarding new graduates' proficiency in HPC/PDC/IoT/Edge. ● Resources based on advanced programming languages and environments/frameworks. ● Projects or units introducing concepts related to distributed computing at scale. ● Evaluating generative AI impacts on teaching HPC. ● Addressing the gender gap in computing disciplines and enhancing the pipeline to research/development careers in HPC/PDC and related areas. ● Addressing software engineering challenges in HPC/PDC. EduHPC is seeking contributions in 3 different categories. A “Most Distinguished Paper” award will be awarded for the workshop. Both Education Research papers and Short Papers are eligible for the award. 1. Education Research paper: A Full Paper is a previously unpublished work that addresses the above mentioned topics and themes of the workshop. Full papers are 7-8 pages, including figures, tables, and references (fully counted toward the page limit), with a recommended Artifact Description (AD) appendix (up to 2 pages). All submissions are peer-reviewed (single blind). Accepted papers will appear in the SC proceedings. 2. Short Papers: Short papers address specific topics of interest at EduHPC. Short papers are 4-5 pages long, including figures, tables and references. All submissions are peer-reviewed (single blind) with accepted papers appearing in the SC proceedings. This year, there are two categories of short papers we are interested in: * Research to Education submissions discuss innovative experiences in integrating research, as well as associated methods, tools, models, simulations, or datasets, into educational settings, with a focus on undergraduate or K-12 levels, or fostering broader community engagement. Submissions do not need to include an assessment of teaching techniques or in-class evaluations. An optional additional 2 additional pages for the Artifact Description (AD) appendix is recommended. * Experience/Replication Report submissions discuss how a previously described tool or method for HPC education worked in the context of their own classrooms. These papers aim to help the community understand how well previously described tools or methods work in the context of the diverse set of institutions and student populations that may interact with such tools, helping foster a consensus on what works well and what may not. 3. Peachy Parallel Assignments: Peachy Parallel Assignments are HPC/PDC educational assignments that cover any topics related to HPC or PDC education, and are: Tested, Adoptable, Engaging and Inspirational. Please see the official CFP for full details. Peachy assignments should be submitted as a 1-2 page paper that includes a 150-word abstract describing the assignment and the context in which it was used, a short paragraph summarizing how the assignment relates to other PDC education literature/applications, references, plus a link to a public web page containing the complete set of files actually given to students (assignment description, scaffolding code, etc.) The Peachy short papers will not appear as is in the SC Workshop proceedings. A paper encompassing all the accepted Peachy submissions will be submitted to the paper track of EduHPC and will go through peer review in that track, with materials included in the appendix. If accepted by the program committee, the collective paper will appear in SC Workshop proceedings. The paper will be authored by the Peachy team and all the authors of the individual Peachy assignments accepted for EduHPC. Submit on linklings: https://urldefense.us/v3/__https://submissions.supercomputing.org/__;!!G_uC… Papers should follow SC26 submission format.
