		EUROMPI 2018: CALL FOR POSTERS
======================================================================

The 25th European MPI Users Group Meeting
September 23-26, 2018
https://eurompi2018.bsc.es
Twitter: @EuroMPIconf

OVERVIEW
--------

We are soliciting poster submissions for EuroMPI 2018 from users, developers
and researchers concerning their work in message-passing parallel
computing, in
particular in and related to the Message Passing Interface (MPI).

The posters session is an excellent opportunity to engage the community to
discuss new ideas and latest results that aren't necessarily ready to be
full
papers. We are interested in posters that cover the topics of interest
of the
EuroMPI 2018 conference.

TOPICS
------

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

* Implementation Issues
   - MPI implementation issues and improvements towards exascale computing,
     such as manycores, GPGPU, and heterogeneous architectures.
   - Interaction between message-passing software and hardware, in
particular
     new high-performance architectures.
   - New MPI-IO mechanisms and I/O stack optimizations.
* Programming Models
   - Extensions to and shortcomings of MPI.
   - Hybrid and heterogeneous programming with MPI and other interfaces.
   - MPI support for data-intensive parallel applications.
   - Fault tolerance in message-passing implementations and systems.
   - New programming paradigms implemented over MPI, like hierarchical
     programming and global address spaces
   - MPI parallel programming in clouds.
* Applications and Performance
   - Performance evaluation for MPI and MPI-based applications.
   - Automatic performance tuning of MPI applications and implementations.
   - Verification of message-passing applications and protocols.
   - Applications using message passing, in particular in computational
science
     and scientific computing.
   - Parallel algorithms in the message-passing paradigm.
   - MPI applications performance on clouds.

IMPORTANT DATES
---------------

- Posters submissions due date:     July 23, 2018
- Posters author notification date: August 4, 2018
- Conference dates:                 September 23-26, 2018
- Poster session:                   September 24, 2018

SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS
-----------------------

Poster submissions should be submitted to the Euro MPI 2018 Submission
Site and
will consist of:

- A short abstract (175 word maximum).
- An extended abstract (2 pages maximum, including figures and
references, and
  formatted according to the "sigconf" style in the ACM 2017 Template).
- A poster draft. Note that complete results are not necessary. It is
  acceptable to have placeholders for last-minute results.
