HiPMoS 2015 - HIGH PERFORMANCE MODELLING AND SIMULATION 2015

********************************************************
HiPMoS 2015
HIGH PERFORMANCE MODELLING AND SIMULATION 2015
********************************************************

CALL FOR PAPERS
We have the great pleasure to invite you to participate in the High Performance Modeling and Simulation 2015 track, that will be held in the framework of the 29th European Conference on Modelling and Simulation (ECMS 2015) in May 26th - 29th, 2015, Varna, Bulgaria. All ECMS papers are indexed by SCOPUS, DBLP,  ISI, INSPEC and DOI.

SCOPE
Modeling and simulation are widely considered essential tools in many areas of science and engineering for the prediction and analysis of complex systems and natural phenomena. They often require a significant amount of computational resources with data sets typically scattered across different geographical locations.
Furthermore, the development of such complex modelling and simulation environments usually requires collaborative efforts from researchers with different domain knowledge and expertise, possibly at different locations. High performance computing is arguably required to deal with the behaviour and complexity of such large-scale systems.

ORGANIZATION AND TOPICS
HiPMoS 2015 is organized as a multi-session track and is composed of the following events:

** Special Session on "Modelling and Simulation of Data Intensive Systems (HiPMoS -DIS)"**

In today's data intensive computing, the application developers need abstract simulation models to expose expected hardware features (e.g., SIMD, lightweight cores, or specialized functional units) and performance targets in terms of hierarchical parallelism, scale, data movement, computational intensity, bandwidths, latencies, and storage capacities of possible data intensive applications and systems, as well as non-performance objectives such as power and resilience. System architects need architecture-independent models of important applications that they can use to identify, understand, and evaluate application behavior on these proposed architectures. These abstractions must exist across the modeling, simulation, and measurement infrastructures.
Modeling and simulation techniques must provide predictive and optimization capabilities at runtime. This will require the development of rapid evaluation techniques as well as interfaces for incorporating models into the layers within the software stack. In addition to dynamic model creation, models must be actionable. That is, the models must enable appropriate levels of the software stack to react to the instantaneous state of the system, both hardware and software, and provide the necessary information that can be used to guide and optimize system operation.
Topics of interest for this session include but are not limited to the following:
- Infrastructures and middleware as enablers for modelling and simulation of data intensive systems
- Evaluation of programming models supporting data intensive applications
- Runtime systems supporting modelling of data intensive applications
- Productivity tools for data intensive applications
- Development and generation of machine and application abstractions for data intensive computing
- Dynamic and actionable modeling of data intensive systems
- Standards, integration and interoperability of modelling and simulation methodologies and tools for data intensive computing

** Special Session on "Probability and statistical methods for modelling and simulation of high performance information systems (HiPMoS- ProbStat)" **

The development trends of modern information technologies lead to the constant growth of complexity of information systems and call for their high performance. Stochastic nature of flows that information systems need to serve and presence of stochastic internal processes that influence their behavior justifies the use of probabilistic modeling and simulation when one needs to analyze their performance. Despite increasing complexity obvious requirement for system’s high performance which ensures, for example, low response times and accuracy, remains unchanged and it calls for advanced methods of modeling and simulation. Such methods must not be limited to those which ensure fast computations but include also those which provide new suitable (from the point of view of high performance) approaches for representation and analysis of system’s component and system as a whole.
The topics of this session are focused on but not limited to the following:
- Queuing Systems Modelling and Simulation
- Performance Modelling and Analysis of Information and Telecommunication Networks
- Information Flows Modeling and Analysis
- Overload and Flow Control Modelling and Simulations
- Assessment of efficiency, reliability and stability (tolerance) of high performance information systems

SUBMISSION GUIDELINES
********************************************************
Authors are invited to submit research and application papers following the IEEE Computer Society Proceedings Manuscripts style available at the main conference web page (http://www.scs-europe.net/conf/ecms2015/authorkit.html).

We solicit the submission of academic conference papers (7 pages) representing original, previously unpublished work. Submitted papers will be carefully evaluated based on originality, significance, technical soundness, and clarity of exposition. Papers should be prepared as PDF files and submitted electronically to the ECMS 2015 online submission system.
Submission of the paper implies that should the paper be accepted, at least one of the authors must register and present the paper at the conference. Accepted papers will be given guidelines in preparing and submitting the final manuscript(s) together with the notification of acceptance. HiPMoS 2015 papers must be submitted for the selected HiPMoS session.
The authors must select the following options for BOTH SUBMISSION and REGISTRATION:
DIS for "Modelling and Simulation of Data Intensive Systems" special session
PROBSTAT for "Probability and statistical methods for modelling and simulation of high performance information systems " special session.
