 	   ================================================
 		        Eighth IEEE Workshop on
 	   High-Performance, Power-Aware Computing (HP-PAC)

 			     May 20, 2013

 		 to be held in conjunction with IPDPS
 			  May 20 - 24, 2013
 			  Boston, Massachusetts USA
 	   ================================================

SCOPE
-----

   High-performance computing is and has always been performance-oriented.
   However, a consequence of the push towards maximum performance is
   increased energy consumption, especially in datacenters and
   supercomputing centers.  Moreover, as peak performance is rarely
   attained, some of this energy consumption results in little or no
   performance gain.  In addition, large energy consumption costs
   datacenters and supercomputing centers a significant amount of
   money and wastes natural resources.

   The main goal of this workshop is to provide a timely forum for the
   exchange and dissemination of new ideas, techniques, and research in
   high-performance, power-aware computing (HPPAC).  HPPAC will present
   research that reduces (1) power consumption, (2) energy consumption,
   or (3) heat generation with little or no performance penalty in
   high-performance computing systems.  In effect, the workshop aims to
   move towards "greener" solutions for datacenters and supercomputing
   centers.

   Topics of interest include but are not limited to the following.

   . Novel power-aware architectures for HPC
   . Power-aware middleware for HPC
   . Power-aware runtime systems for HPC
   . Reduced power/energy/heat algorithms & applications
   . Surveys or studies of power/energy/heat usage of HPC applications and systems

PROCEEDINGS
-----------

   The proceedings of this workshop will be published together with
   the proceedings of other IPDPS '13 workshops by the IEEE Computer
   Society Press.
