[ofa-general] CFP: Workshop on High-Performance, Power-Aware Computing (HP-PAC)

[Pavan Balaji]

CALL FOR PAPERS Fourth IEEE Workshop on High-Performance, Power-Aware Computing (HP-PAC) April 14th, 2008 to be held in conjuction with IPDPS April 14-18, 2008 Miami, Florida, USA SCOPE High-performance computing is and has always been performance-oriented. However, a consequence of the push towards maximum performance is increased energy consumption, especially in datacenters and supercomputing centers. Moreover, as peak performance is rarely attained, some of this energy consumption results in little or no performance gain. In addition, large energy consumption costs datacenters and supercomputing centers a significant amount of money and wastes natural resources. The main goal of this workshop is to provide a timely forum for the exchange and dissemination of new ideas, techniques, and research in high-performance, power-aware computing (HP-PAC). HP-PAC will present research that reduces (1) power consumption, (2) energy consumption, or (3) heat generation with little or no performance penalty in high-performance computing systems. In effect, the workshop aims to move towards "greener" solutions for datacenters and supercomputing centers. Topics of interest include but are not limited to the following: Novel power-aware architectures for HPC Power-aware middleware for HPC Power-aware runtime systems for HPC Reduced power / energy / heat algorithms & applications Surveys or studies of power / energy / heat usage of HPC applications PROCEEDINGS The proceedings of this workshop will be published together with the proceedings of other IPDPS '08 workshops by the IEEE Computer Society Press. PAPER SUBMISSIONS We are planning a purely web submission and review process. Authors are requested to submit papers (in PDF format) not exceeding 8 single-spaced pages, including abstract, contact address, figures, and references. Detailed instructions on web submissions will be available soon. Note: The PDF file must be viewable using "acroread" or similar common utility. Also, your paper should use a page size of 8.5x11 inches (LETTER sized output not A4). IMPORTANT DATES Paper submission: 14 December 2007 Author notification: 11 January 2008 Camera-ready due: 21 January 2008 WORKSHOP CO-CHAIRS Wu-chun Feng, Virginia Tech, USA Satoshi Matsuoka, Tokyo Institute of Technology, USA PROGRAM COMMITTEE Ishfaq Ahmad, University of Texas at Arlington, USA Frank Bellosa, University of Karlsruhe, Germany Kirk Cameron, Virginia Tech, USA Alok Choudhary, Northwestern University, USA Bronis de Supinski, Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, USA Hank Dietz, University of Kentucky, USA Xizhou Feng, Virginia Tech, USA Vincent Freeh, North Carolina State University, USA Soraya Ghiasi, IBM Austin Research Laboratory, USA Chung-Hsing Hsu, Los Alamos National Laboratory, USA David Lowenthal, University of Georgia, USA Hiroshi Nakamura, The University of Tokyo, Japan Dimitris Nikolopoulos, Virginia Tech, USA Padma Raghavan, Penn State University, USA J.
