[hpc-announce] CFP: IXPUG Workshop ISC2019

[Taisuke Boku]

Dear Kai Cheung,

When can you distribute the announcement to HPC ML?
The deadline is reaching and we like to share it ASAP. Thank you. 

Best regards,
Taisuke

> 
> Overview:
> IXPUG - Intel eXtreme Performance Users Group is a user's community
> for extreme performance research and industry activities based on Intel
> products. IXPUbG organizes several workshops conjuncted with major
> international conferences/symposiums on high performance computing over
> the world. For ISC2019 held in Frankfurt Messe, IXPUG Workshop will be
> held as a part of ISC2019 on the last day of conference which is dedicated
> as Workshop Day.
>  The workshop will bring together software developers, scientists,
> academia, and industry luminaries to share learnings around the
> integration and use of FPGA devices in HPC, Data Analytics, and
> Artificial Intelligence (Machine Learning and Deep Learning) workloads
> in Intel-based HPC systems. The workshop will cover strategies for
> migrating workloads onto FPGAs, performance comparisons, aspects of
> productivity, performance portability, and scalability. Objectives of
> the workshop are:
>  1.) using FPGAs on Intel-based systems and scientific achievements,
>  2.) FPGA-related trends and challenges, and
>  3.) foster collaborations and strengthen the community of FPGA
>      enthusiasts using Intel-based HPC systems.
> 
> Date and Place:
> June 20th (Thu) 2:00PM - 6:00PM (Workshop Day of ISC2019)
> Frankfurt Marriott Hotel (Room Megabyte), Frankfurt, Germany
> 
> Topics of Interest (but not limited to):
> Sharing field-programmable gate array (FPGA), FPGA programming
> environments and abstraction tools, FPGA programming models,
> comparison of FPGA performance vs traditional or GPU hardware,
> embedded memory architectures, algorithmic techniques and mapping to
> FPGAs, machine learning algorithms on FPGAs, FPGA offload techniques,
> FPGA interfaces to traditional hardware, integrating FPGAs into an
> existing HPC environment.
> 
> Keywords:
> Field-programmable gate array (FPGA), reconfigurable architectures,
> HPC, Artificial Intelligence (machine learning and deep learning)
> applications performance, FPGAs using Intel-based technology,
> benchmarking, programming environments, FPGA tools and techniques.
> 
> Instructions for Papers
> Length rules: minimum 10 pages, maximum 18 pages.
> The accepted papers will be published in the Springer's Lecture Notes
> in Computer Science (LNCS) series.
> Manuscripts should be therefore prepared following the publisher's
> guidelines for authors, and using the publisher templates.
> 
> Review Process:
> All submitted papers will be reviewed and we will apply the standard
> single-blind review process (i.e. the authors will be known to
> reviewers). The assignment of reviewers from the Program Committee
> avoids conflicts of interest. All submissions within the scope of the
> workshop will be peer-reviewed and will need to demonstrate quality of
> results, originality, new insights, technical strength, and ensure
> correctness. The submitted papers may not be published in or be in
> preparation for the other conferences, workshops or journals.
>
