Call For Papers: First International Workshop on Communication Architectures at Extreme Scale (ExaComm'15)

        Call For Papers

            First International Workshop on Communication
                    Architectures at Extreme Scale
                            (ExaComm 2015)

                  July 16, 2015, Frankfurt, Germany

                      held in conjunction with
                    ISC 2015, July 12 - 16, 2015
                         Frankfurt, Germany

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


Extreme Scale computing is marked by multiple-levels of hierarchy and
heterogeneity ranging from the compute units to storage devices to the network
interconnects. Owing to the plethora of heterogeneous communication paths with
different cost models expected to be present in extreme scale systems, data
movement is seen as the soul of different challenges for exascale computing. On
the other hand, advances in networking technologies such as NoCs (like NVLink
and Storm Lake), RDMA enabled networks and the like are constantly pushing the
envelope of research in the field of novel communication and computing
architectures for extreme scale computing. The goal of this workshop is to bring
together researchers and software/hardware designers from both academy and
industry who are involved in creating network-based computing solutions for
extreme scale architectures. To share their experiences and to learn the
opportunities and challenges in future design trends for HPC applications and
systems.

ExaComm 2015 will be held in conjunction with the International Supercomputing
(ISC 2015), Frankfurt, Germany, on Thursday, July 16th, 2015.


Topics
----------

ExaComm 2015 welcomes original submissions in a range of areas, including but
not limited to:

    * Scalable communication protocols
    * High performance networks
    * Runtime/middleware designs
    * Novel hardware/software co-design
    * High performance communication solutions for accelerator based computing
    * Power-aware techniques and designs
    * Performance evaluations
    * Quality of Service (QoS)
    * Resource virtualization and SR-IOV

Papers should present original research and should provide sufficient background
material to make them accessible to the broader community.

Paper Submission, Registration, and Publication
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Abstracts and papers need to be submitted via the EasyChair conference system.


We request the authors to use the LNCS style (single column format) using either
the LaTeX document class or Word template. For details on the author guidelines,
please refer to Springerâs website. Incorrectly formatted papers will be
excluded from the reviewing process.

Page Limit: 10 pages without bibliography

Papers should not be submitted in parallel to any other conference or journal.

At least one of the authors of each accepted paper must register as a
participant of the workshop and present the paper at the workshop.

Please contact the Workshop Organizers for any questions / clarifications
