========================================================================== CALL FOR PAPERS ========================================================================== International Workshop on Runtime and Operating Systems for Supercomputers *** ROSS 2022 *** Held in conjunction with SC22: The International Conference for High Performance Computing, Networking, Storage and Analysis, Dallas, Texas, USA, November 13, 2022 ========================================================================== https://events.cels.anl.gov/ross/2022/ ========================================================================== The complexity of node architectures in supercomputers increases as we cross milestones on the way towards Exascale and beyond. Increasing levels of parallelism in multi- and many-core chips and emerging heterogeneity of computational resources coupled with energy and memory constraints force a reevaluation of our approaches towards operating systems and runtime environments. The ROSS workshop, to be held as a half-day event in conjunction with the SC22 conference, focuses on principles and techniques to design, implement, optimize, or operate runtime and operating systems for massively parallel supercomputers and cloud environments for high-performance computing. In addition to typical workshop publications, we encourage novel and possibly immature ideas, provided that they are interesting and on-topic. Well argued position papers are also welcome. TOPICS OF INTEREST: ------------------- - OS and runtime system scalability on many-node and multi/many-core systems - management of heterogeneous and reconfigurable compute resources, including FPGAs, GPUs, etc. - distributed/hybrid/partitioned OSes and runtime systems for Supercomputing - system noise analysis and prevention - runtime and operating systems for resource disaggregation - modeling and performance analysis of runtime systems - the use of machine learning and AI techniques in the autotuning of system software - OS and runtime considerations for large-volume, high-performance I/O - memory management and emerging memory technologies - OS and runtime aspects of HPC in the cloud, convergence of Supercomputing and cloud environments - infrastructure for cloud functions and serverless computing in the context of HPC - virtualization in HPC, including virtual machines and application containers - the role of OS and runtime system in minimizing power usage SCHEDULE AND SUBMISSION PROCEDURE: ---------------------------------- Submission deadline: August 8, 2022 Author notification: September 9, 2022 Pre-recorded videos: September 30, 2022 Final papers: October 10, 2022 Workshop date: November 13, 2022 The ROSS workshop proceedings will be published electronically via the IEEE Computer Society Digital Library. Submitted manuscripts should be formatted using the IEEE template conference mode. The maximum paper length is 8 pages, not including references and other appendices. All papers must be in English.
