==============================
A Special Issue of
Journal of Parallel and Distributed Computing:
Domain-Specific Languages and High-Level Frameworks for
High-Performance Computing
Paper Submission Deadline: July 15, 2013
==============================
BACKGROUND AND SCOPE
--------------------
Multi-level heterogeneous parallelism and deep memory hierarchies in
current and emerging computer systems make their programming for
high-performance applications very difficult. The task is made more
challenging by the changing landscape of system architecture mandated
by power and micro-architecture considerations. Domain-specific
languages (DSLs) and high-level frameworks (HLFs) provide convenient
abstractions, shielding application developers from much of the
complexity of explicitly programming in general-purpose programming
languages like C/C++/Fortran, using parallel programming models like
MPI/OpenMP/Pthreads. They also enable compilers to exploit semantic
properties in optimizing programs, as well as facilitate performance
portability across different target platforms. This special issue
invites submissions describing research on any aspect relating to
domain-specific languages and high-level frameworks in the context of
high-performance computing
Topics of interest for the special issue include but are not limited
to the following list:
* Application frameworks
* Domain-specific languages and libraries
* High-level data structures
* High-level aspects of programming languages
* Directive-based optimization approaches
