Due to several requests, we have extended the deadline for the PMES workshop to July 1st AOE. Best regards, -- PMES Organizing Committee ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Call For Position Papers Submission Deadline EXTENDED to July 1 AOE The 1st International Workshop on Post-Moore's Era Supercomputing (PMES) Co-located with SC16, Salt Lake City Monday, 14 November 2016 Workshop URL: http://j.mp/pmes2016 CFP URL: http://j.mp/pmes2016cfp Submission URL (EasyChair): http://j.mp/pmes2016submissions Submission questions: [email protected] ----- Workshop Summary ----- This interdisciplinary workshop is organized to explore the scientific issues, challenges, and opportunities for supercomputing beyond the scaling limits of Moore's Law, with the ultimate goal of keeping supercomputing at the forefront of computing technologies. Continuing progress of supercomputing beyond the scaling limits of Moore's Law is likely to require a comprehensive re-thinking of technologies, ranging from innovative materials and devices, circuits, system architectures, programming systems, system software, and applications. The workshop is designed to foster interdisciplinary dialog across the necessary spectrum of stakeholders: applications, algorithms, software, and hardware. Motivating workshop questions will include the following. "What technologies might prevail in the Post Moore's Era?" "How can applications effectively prepare for these changes through co-design?" "What architectural abstractions should be in place to represent the traditional concepts like hierarchical parallelism, multi-tier data locality, and new concepts like variable precision, approximate solutions, and resource tradeoff directives?" "What programming models might insulate applications from these changes?" ----- Workshop Topics (not exclusive) ----- Technology trends and predictions Silicon photonics and optical networks 2.5D and 3D integration and stacking Alternative memory systems including non-volatile memory Neuromorphic and brain-inspired computing Probabilistic and stochastic computing Approximate computing Superconducting electronics Quantum computing Computational science, data intensive, deep learning application drivers for PMES systems Tools for or results from codesign of PMES systems Performance studies of PMES systems Modeling, simulation, emulation of PMES systems Programming paradigms for PMES systems Techniques for energy efficient or power constrained supercomputing ----- Important Dates ----- Submission site opens: 17 April 2016 Submission Deadline: 17 June 2016 -- EXTENDED TO July 1 AOE Notification Deadline: 17 August 2016 Workshop: 14 November 2016 ----- Submission Instructions ----- Please see our website for submission instructions and formats for 2-page position papers: http://j.mp/pmes2016cfp ----- Organizing Committee ----- Co-chair: Prof. Satoshi Matsuoka (Tokyo Institute of Technology) Co-chair: Dr. Jeffrey S.
