CALL FOR PAPERS: DEADLINE EXTENSION PGAS-X 2014

CALL FOR PAPERS: DEADLINE EXTENSION

=============================================================

The 3rd Annual Workshop on PGAS & Shared Memory Extensions for 
Heterogeneous Architectures (PGAS-X 2014)

Held in conjunction with the 8th International Conference on Partitioned Global 
Address Space Programming Models (PGAS 2014)

October 8, 2014 [specific workshop date to be announced]
University of Oregon
Eugene, Oregon, USA

=============================================================

Partitioned Global Address Space [PGAS] and shared memory programming models such as UPC, Co-Array Fortran, OpenSHMEM and OpenMP offer mechanisms to expose applications to globally shared memory and native thread/task parallelism.  However, with the advent of heterogeneous computing architectures, there exists a significant gap in coupling PGAS-style languages to non-traditional computing devices such as GPU’s and reconfigurable processors.  This workshop shall serve as a forum to present research developments and language-extensions for tightly coupled PGAS/shared memory languages and heterogeneous architectures.

Original and early results, language-extension proposals and demos are solicited in, but not limited to, the following areas:
- Heterogeneous memory locality and partitioning
- Heterogeneous PGAS debugging and performance analysis techniques
- Compiler and runtime optimizations for heterogeneous architectures
- Novel algorithmic implementations on hybrid architectures using PGAS or shared memory
- Early research in the area of next-generation PGAS languages for hybrid platforms
