                Submission deadline: 30 June 2014

*********************************************************************
You are cordially invited to submit one page abstracts about relevant
and unpublished work to the Extreme-Scale Programming Tools workshop
to be held at SC 2014.  The Workshop aims to repeat the success of
predecessor workshops held at SC12 & SC13.  After review by the
organizing committee, selected authors will be invited to give talks
of 20 minutes (including discussion).  Presenters' slides will be
made public on the workshop website as PDF files, however, no formal
proceedings are planned to be published.

Workshop abstract:

Approaching exascale, architectural complexity and severe resource
limitations with respect to power, memory and I/O make tools support
in debugging and performance optimization more critical than ever
before.  However, the challenges mentioned above also apply to tools
development and, in particular, raise the importance of topics such
as automatic tuning and methodologies for exascale tools-aided
application development.  This workshop will serve as a forum for
application, system, and tool developers to discuss the requirements
for future exascale-enabled tools and the roadblocks that need to be
addressed on the way. We also highly encourage application developers
to share their experiences with using tools.

This workshop is third in a series at SC conferences organized by the
Virtual Institute - High  Productivity Supercomputing (VI-HPS), an
international initiative of HPC programming-tool builders.  The event
will also focus on the community-building process necessary to create
an integrated tools-suite ready for an exascale software stack.

*********************************************************************
Workshop topics:

* Programming tools, such as performance analysis and tuning tools,
  debuggers, IDEs
* Methodologies for performance engineering
* Tool technologies tackling extreme-scale challenges, such as
  scalability, resilience, power, etc.
* Tool infrastructures
* Application developer experiences with programming tools

*********************************************************************
Submission details:

Please submit the title and one page abstract until June 30th, 2014
