PMAM 2014 CFP The 2014 International Workshop on Programming Models and Applications for Multicores and Manycores will be co-located with the PPoPP 2014 conference in February 15-19, 2014, Orlando, Florida. Rapid advancements in multicore and manycore chips have been a revolution within chip manufacturing, almost eradicating single-core processors. From high-end servers to mobile phones, multicore and manycore chips are steadily entering every single aspect of information technology. However, programming multicore and manycore architectures remains challenging today. To fully utilize these chips, parallel programming models that allow sequential programs and programs utilizing limited parallelism to transition to architectures with massive parallelism, while maintaining good performance and productive development, 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. 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 multicore and manycore software engineering parallel and distributed algorithms on GPU 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 auto-tuning 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 Important Dates Paper submission deadline : November 3, 2013 (extended to November 17, 2013) Notification of acceptance : December 15, 2013 Camera-ready papers due : January 1, 2014 Papers reporting original and unpublished research results and experience are solicited. All paper submissions will be handled electronically via EasyChair. http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=pmam2014 Papers must not exceed 10 pages in standard ACM two-column conference format (preprint mode, with page number and the 9pt template). Authors must register and submit their paper through the online submission system. If you have problems accessing the system, e-mail your submission to: pmam2014 at cs dot otago dot ac dot nz All accepted papers will be published in the PMAM 2014 proceedings by the ACM Digital Library, and will be included in the Elsevier databases Scopus and Compendex. Selected best papers of PMAM 2014 will be considered for publication in a special issue of the Elsevier journal of Parallel Computing (ParCo) or Springer's Journal of Supercomputing.
