* Scope
Computer architectures and computer systems are becoming increasingly
complex. Multicore processors and heterogeneous computing systems
equipped with accelerators pose demanding challenges to programmers when
optimizing the performance of their codes. Auto-tuning is a promising
technology for tackling these challenges. Several methodologies and
auto-tuning approaches have been proposed, especially for numerical
computations. More recently, the applicability of auto-tuning has been
extended to other areas of computer science and engineering, from
embedded systems to extreme scale computing systems.

* Topics of interest
Papers are solicited in following areas of auto-tuning technologies for 
multicore and GPU computing, but not limited to:
- Optimized Algorithms for Numerical Libraries
- Automatic Code Generation and Empirical Compilation Hybrid Programming
   for Threads and Processes
- Communication Optimization
- Mixed Precision and Accuracy Assurance for Numerical Computing
- Power Consumption Optimization
- Fault Tolerance

* Submission
Submission information including paper format and submission site is
listed here. Online submission site: https://edas.info/N27016

- Each submitted paper will be reviewed by at least three reviewers and
   will be evaluated based on originality, relevance to the session's
   theme, organization, and technical quality.
- Submission of a paper implies that at least one of the authors will
   register for the symposium at the full rate and an author will present
   the paper.
- The papers should be prepared according to the IEEE CS format, and no
   longer than 8 pages.
- Proceedings of the symposium will be published by IEEE Computer
   Society Press.
