                       at ISC High Performance 2018
                    Frankfurt, Germany, June 28, 2018
========================================================================

Guaranteed numerical precision of each elementary step in a complex
computation has been the mainstay of traditional computing systems for
many years. This era is at its twilight: to overcome the “power wall”
in Exascale systems, a shift from traditional computing paradigms is now
mandatory.

The ATCET workshop brings together experts from many fields to discuss
and explore the potential of approximation in hardware and software,
from both a statistical and a deterministic viewpoint. Transprecision
computing represents the paradigm shift to break the current performance
and energy-efficiency barriers of systems at all scales, from sensors
to supercomputers.

=== Topics of interest ===
Topics on approximate and transprecision computing addressed in the
workshop include (and are not limited to):

- Formal and mathematical methods and algorithms
- Error resilient methods and algorithms
- Emulation, metrics, modeling, and benchmarking
- Compiler and system software support
- Emerging Technologies: hardware, processor, memory, and storage
- Applications in HPC, Scientific Computing, Big Data, and Deep Learning

=== Important dates ===
Papers Due:               April 27, 2018
Author Notification:      May   11, 2018
Camera-Ready Submission:  June  22, 2018
