Call for Papers
ICS is the premier international forum for the presentation of research results in high-performance computing systems. ICS 2013 will be held in Eugene, Oregon, in the heart of the Willamette Valley.
Contributions to the technical program, workshops, and tutorials are sought covering a broad range of research, development, and application of high-performance experimental and commercial systems. Topic of interest include, but are not limited to:
- Computer architecture and hardware, including multicore and multiprocessor systems, accelerators, memory, interconnection network and storage and file systems;
- High-performance computational and programming models, including new languages and middleware for high performance computing, auto-tuning and function-specific code generators;
- High performance system software, including compilers, runtime systems, programming and development tools, performance tools, and operating systems;
- Hardware and software solutions for heterogeneity, reliability, and power efficiency;
- Languages, runtimes, and hardware for “big data” scenarios with a focus on high-performance data analytics, including scalable data structures, dealing with large quantities of unstructured data, online monitoring and I/O, and parallel visualization;
- Computationally challenging scientific and commercial applications, particularly studies and experiences on large-scale systems, and supercomputing on big data problems;
- Large scale installations, including case studies to guide the design of future systems and solutions for efficiently scaling power, performance and reliability;
- Novel infrastructures for internet, grid and cloud computing;
- Performance evaluation studies and theoretical underpinnings of any of the above topics.
Of particular interest are papers on any aspects of extreme-scale and heterogeneous supercomputing systems, integrated HPC software stacks, and supercomputing applications in science and engineering.
Papers should not exceed 12 pages 10 pages in the ACM format. Please note the change from 12 to 10 pages!
