6th Workshop on Many-Task Computing on Clouds, Grids, and Supercomputers (MTAGS) 2013
http://datasys.cs.iit.edu/
Co-located with IEEE/ACM Supercomputing/SC 2013
Denver Colorado -- November 17th, 2013
Overview
------------------------------
The 6th workshop on Many-Task Computing on Grids and Supercomputers
(MTAGS) will provide the scientific community a dedicated forum for
presenting new research, development, and deployment efforts of
large-scale many-task computing (MTC) applications on large scale
clusters, Grids, Supercomputers, and Cloud Computing
infrastructure. MTC, the theme of the workshop encompasses loosely
coupled applications, which are generally composed of many tasks (both
independent and dependent tasks) to achieve some larger application
goal. This workshop will cover challenges that can hamper efficiency
and utilization in running applications on large-scale systems, such
as local resource manager scalability and granularity, efficient
utilization of raw hardware, parallel file system contention and
scalability, data management, I/O management, reliability at scale,
and application scalability. We welcome paper submissions on all
theoretical, simulations, and systems topics related to MTC, but we
give special consideration to papers addressing petascale to exascale
challenges. Papers will be peer-reviewed, and accepted papers will be
published in the workshop proceedings as part of the ACM digital
library (pending approval). The workshop will be co-located with the
IEEE/ACM Supercomputing 2013 Conference in Denver Colorado on November
18th, 2013.
For more information, please see

past workshops, please see MTAGS12, MTAGS11, MTAGS10, MTAGS09, and
MTAGS08. We also ran a Special Issue on Many-Task Computing in the
IEEE Transactions on Parallel and Distributed Systems (TPDS) which has
appeared in June 2011; the proceedings can be found online at
http://www.computer.org/
the workshop organizers, also published a highly relevant paper that
defines Many-Task Computing which was published in MTAGS08, titled
Many-Task Computing for Grids and Supercomputers; we encourage
potential authors to read this paper, and to clearly articulate in
your paper submissions how your papers are related to Many-Task
Computing.

We invite the submission of original work that is related to the
topics below. The papers should be 6 pages, including all figures and
references. We aim to cover topics related to Many-Task Computing on

of the ACM digital library (pending approval). Notifications of the
paper decisions will be sent out by October 13th, 2011. Selected
excellent work may be eligible for additional post-conference
publication as journal articles. Submission implies the willingness of
