Less attention has been paid to the mathematics at exascale. > The focus of this workshop is on providing relevant, accessible and timely > material on exascale computing and the mathematical challenges with many-core > and accelerated architectures. The intent is that attendees come away with a > reasonable idea of the current state of the art, the current challenges and > opportunities, and what needs to be done differently going forward. This > workshop, a synthesis of the state of the field, will be accessible to > non-experts and experts alike. > > The workshop will consist of a full day of contributed and invited > presentations and discussions on topics including, but not limited to: > - Current state of the art > o Today's hardware > o Parallel numerical algorithms and libraries > - Challenges > o Emerging architectures that will enable exascale > o Effectively using millions of computational units > o Hybrid architectures > o Resilience and fault-tolerant algorithms > o Reproducibility > - Future directions > o Compiler directives, domain libraries, or code changes, or ...? > o Decomposition/coupling/multiphysics evolution > o How can algorithm and library developers harness future > architectures > > Case studies, position papers proposing topics for discussion, and technical > talks describing particular approaches are invited. The organizers seek > participants from a broad spectrum of areas, including developers of > scientific simulation codes and industrial end users. The presentations are > expected to be 30 minutes in length, but we will entertain exceptions. > > Those wishing to participate should submit an abstract or position paper by > February 28, 2014. Papers should be submitted through EasyChair at > https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=ex14 . > Submissions should be no longer than 1000 words; no additional material other > than a list of cited references will be considered. Use no smaller than > 11-point font and at least one-inch margins. There is a limit of at most two > submissions that an individual can submit; no limits on number of > groups/institutions. Each paper should provide contact information (name, > institution, email address) for a single, corresponding author. If you do > not already have an account on EasyChair, you will be asked to go through the > easy process to create one. > > Notifications of acceptance will be sent by March 31, 2014. Submissions will > be selected based on their quality and responsiveness to the call. We expect > to post the selected papers online with the agenda. Participants will be > expected to fund their own travel and accommodations for the workshop. > > Please refer to the EX14 website (http://www.siam.org/meetings/ex14/) for > updates on the workshop details including the full call. > > Organizing Committee > - Mark R.
