[hpc-announce] CFP: PGAS-X 2014: Workshop on PGAS Extensions for Heterogeneous Architectures

[John Leidel]

CALL FOR PAPERS

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

The 3rd Annual Workshop on PGAS & Shared Memory Extensions for
Heterogeneous Architectures (PGAS-X 2014)
https://sites.google.com/a/pgas-x.org/pgas-x-2014/home

Held in conjunction with the 8th International Conference on Partitioned
Global
Address Space Programming Models (PGAS 2014)
http://nic.uoregon.edu/pgas14

October 7-10, 2014 [specific workshop date to be announced]
University of Oregon
Eugene, Oregon, USA

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

Partitioned Global Address Space [PGAS] and shared memory programming
models such as UPC, Co-Array Fortran, OpenSHMEM and OpenMP offer mechanisms
to expose applications to globally shared memory and native thread/task
parallelism.  However, with the advent of heterogeneous computing
architectures, there exists a significant gap in coupling PGAS-style
languages to non-traditional computing devices such as GPU’s and
reconfigurable processors.  This workshop shall serve as a forum to present
research developments and language-extensions for tightly coupled
PGAS/shared memory languages and heterogeneous architectures.

Original and early results, language-extension proposals and demos are
solicited in, but not limited to, the following areas:
- Heterogeneous memory locality and partitioning
- Heterogeneous PGAS debugging and performance analysis techniques
- Compiler and runtime optimizations for heterogeneous architectures
- Novel algorithmic implementations on hybrid architectures using PGAS or
shared memory
- Early research in the area of next-generation PGAS languages for hybrid
platforms

Deadlines:
- Paper submissions due: August 1, 2014
