International Workshop on Autonomic High Performance Computing
(AHPC 2016)

CALL FOR PAPERS AND PARTICIPATION

As part of The International Conference on High Performance
Computing & Simulation (HPCS 2016)

http://hpcs2016.cisedu.info or http://cisedu.us/rp/hpcs16

July 18 – July 22, 2016 The University of Innsbruck Innsbruck,
Austria

Submission Deadline: March 07, 2016

Submissions could be for full papers, short papers, poster papers,
or posters

SCOPE AND OBJECTIVES

Due to the increasing complexity, scale and
heterogeneity in computing systems and applications, including
hardware, software, sensors, communications and networks, there are
needs for Autonomic Computing (AC) focusing on self-manageable
systems that exhibit self-configuration, self-healing,
self-protection, self-optimization, and/or self-monitoring. It is
getting even more critical with the ubiquitous permeation of
embedded devices.

The purpose of this workshop is intended to bring together
specialists and researchers in those converging specialties to
share views and address technical issues and developments for
autonomic and high performance computing.

The AHPC Workshop topics include (but are not limited to) the
following:

- Autonomic computing systems that exhibit Self-configuration,
self-healing, self-protection, self-optimization, self-awareness,
and/or self-monitoring

- Software engineering principles and architectures in Autonomic
Computing

- Algorithms: machine learning, operations research, probability
and stochastic processes, queueing theory, rule-based systems,
biological-inspired techniques, and socially-inspired techniques

- Control-based approaches and Control Theory applied to Autonomic
High Performance Computing systems

- Autonomic components: hardware accelerators, multi-core servers,
storage, and networking

- Data analysis and decision techniques

- Monitoring systems

- Theory and practice of autonomic systems

- Self-Organization and Organic Computing

- Management of resources including hardware, workloads, faults,
security, power, and other challenges

- Hypervisor, operating systems, middleware, hardware, or
application support for autonomic computing

- Knowledge-based and/or intelligent user interfaces

- Self-adaptability and self-management of context-aware systems

- Cognitive computing and self-awareness in HPC and distributed
systems

- Modeling, virtualization, operating systems or application in
autonomic computing

- Biologically inspired computing (evolutionary algorithms,
cellular automata, DNA computation, amorphous computing, etc)

- Autonomic solutions in Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) and Internet
of Things (IoT)

- Autonomic solutions in security and integrity

- Applications of autonomic computing and experiences in science,
engineering, business and society

PAPER SUBMISSIONS

You are invited to submit original and unpublished research works
on above and other topics related to autonomic high performance and
distributed computing. Submitted papers must not have been
published or simultaneously submitted elsewhere. For Regular
papers, please submit a PDF copy of your full manuscript, not to
exceed 8 double-column formatted pages per template, and include up
to 6 keywords and an abstract of no more than 400 words. Additional
pages will be charged additional fee. Submissions should include a
cover page with authors' names, affiliation addresses, fax numbers,
phone numbers, and all authors email addresses. Please, indicate
clearly the corresponding author(s) although all authors are
equally responsible for the manuscript. Short papers (up to 4
pages), poster papers and posters (please refer to
http://hpcs2016.cisedu.info/1-call-for-papers/call-for-posters for 
posters submission details)
will also be considered. Please specify the type of submission you 
have.  Please include page
numbers on all preliminary submissions to make it easier for reviewers 
to provide
helpful comments.

Submit a PDF copy of your full manuscript to the workshop paper
submission EasyChair site at
https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=ahpc2016.
Acknowledgement will be sent within 48 hours of submission.

Only PDF files will be accepted, uploaded to the submission link
above. Each paper will receive a minimum of three reviews. Papers
will be selected based on their originality, relevance,
significance, technical clarity and presentation, and references.
Submission implies the willingness of at least one of the authors
to register and present the paper, if accepted. At least one of the
authors of each accepted paper will have to register and attend the
HPCS 2016 conference to present the paper at the workshop.

Proceedings Accepted papers will be published in the Conference
proceedings. Instructions for final manuscript format and
requirements will be posted on the HPCS 2016 Conference web site.
It is our intent to have the proceedings formally published in hard
and soft copies and be available at the time of the conference. The
proceedings is projected to be included in the IEEE Digital Library
and indexed in all major indexing services accordingly.

SPECIAL ISSUE Plans are underway to have the best accepted papers
be selected for possible publication in a journal special issue(s).
Detailed information will soon be announced, and will be made
available on the conference website.

If you have any questions about paper submission or the workshop,
please contact the workshop organizers.
