[hpc-announce] HotI'17: Call for Tutorials

[khaled hamidouche]

*Call for Tutorials*



*Scope: *Attendees will come from mixed backgrounds and interests in
interconnection networks. We encourage tutorials of broad applicability
rather than those focusing solely on research in a limited domain or by a
particular group. Areas of interest for tutorials include but are not
limited to:

·        Networking support for machine learning

   - High performance computing networking
   - Ethernet networking and software defined networking
   - Data Center/Cloud and Big Data networking
   - Optical interconnects and emerging interconnect architectures
   - High-speed packet processing engines and network processors
   - System-on-Chip interconnects

*Equipment: *Hot Interconnects will provide Internet access and rooms with
standard presentation equipment. Hands-on tutorials must be prepared to
rely on laptops brought by the participants.



*Review Process: *Tutorial submissions will be reviewed by the Hot
Interconnects 2017 tutorials committee. The committee will consider, among
other aspects, appropriateness and utility for Hot Interconnects tutorial
audience, timeliness and general interest, clarity, completeness,
cohesiveness of the proposal and presentation history and teaching/speaking
experience of the presenters. Special consideration will be given to
tutorials that complement this year's machine learning theme.



*Publication: *All materials must be submitted to the tutorials chair by
August 12th and will be released to the attendees. Submitters must
explicitly agree to release the materials for this purpose.



*How to submit: *Tutorials may be proposed for one half-day (three hours, 2
presenters max) duration. Tutorials on new and emerging technologies are
encouraged. Tutorial proposals must be submitted electronically via the web
site http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=hoti25tut. Although not
required, you are strongly urged to submit samples of your visual aids. You
may upload these in PDF format separately or as an addendum to your
detailed proposal, or you may supply a URL at which the samples may be
found.



The submission should include a single PDF file with the following
sections, each beginning on a separate page:



1.      Title page including the following components:

a.      Title; Name, organization, and email address of each author

b.      200-word (maximum) abstract; (Optional) A URL with samples of your

c.      Previous presentations of this tutorial including any differences
