*** Call for Papers:

ICS is the premier international forum for the presentation of research results
in high-performance computing systems and supercomputing. 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 “big data” 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.
