============================================================================
	      27th International Conference on Supercomputing
			    June 10 - 14, 2013
		   University of Oregon, Eugene, OR USA
			 Sponsored by ACM/SIGARCH

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

ICS is the premier international forum for the presentation of research
results in high-performance computing systems.  ICS 2013 will be held at
the University of Oregon, Eugene, Oregon, in the heart of the Willamette
Valley.

Contributions to the technical program, workshops, and tutorials are sought
covering a broad range of research, development, and application of
high-performance experimental and commercial systems.  Topic of interest
include, but are not limited to:

* Computer architecture and hardware, including multicore and
  multiprocessor systems, accelerators, memory, interconnection network and
  storage and file systems;

* High-performance computational and programming models, including new
  languages and middleware for high performance computing, auto-tuning and
  function-specific code generators;

* High performance system software, including compilers, runtime systems,
  programming and development tools, performance tools, and operating
  systems;

* Hardware and software solutions for heterogeneity, reliability, and power
  efficiency;

* Languages, runtimes, and hardware for übig dataý scenarios with a focus
  on high-performance data analytics, including scalable data structures,
  dealing with large quantities of unstructured data, online monitoring and
  I/O, and parallel visualization;

* Computationally challenging scientific and commercial applications,
  particularly studies and experiences on large-scale systems, and
  supercomputing on big data problems;

* Large scale installations, including case studies to guide the design of
  future systems and solutions for efficiently scaling power, performance
  and reliability;

* Novel infrastructures for internet, grid and cloud computing;

* Performance evaluation studies and theoretical underpinnings of any of
  the above topics.

Of particular interest are papers on any aspects of extreme-scale and
heterogeneous supercomputing systems, integrated HPC software stacks, and
supercomputing applications in science and engineering.
