MAMHYP-22 is the sixth workshop after the first five held in Torun,
Warsaw, Krakow, Lublin and Bialystok in 2011, 2013, 2015, 2017, and 2019,
respectively, jointly to the PPAM conferences. Despite the progress done
in the field, the development of efficient algorithms for HPC systems
with multiple forms of parallelism is still a challenging problem.

More precisely, from an architectural point of view, a High-Performance
Computing system can be described using a hybrid multi-level structure:
at the highest level, there are several systems connected among them by
geographic networks (System level); an intermediate level is composed by
the nodes in a single system communicating among them through dedicated
fast networks or high-performance switches (node level); at the lowest
level, finally, there are several computing elements, computing cores as
well as graphic accelerators, sharing resources in a single CPU (core
level).

These architecture levels have very different features, requiring
different algorithmic development methodologies. For such a reason,
the development of algorithms and scientific software for these systems
implies a suitable combination of several methodologies to deal with
the different kinds of parallelism corresponding to each architectural
level. The general aim is to develop hybrid and hierarchical algorithms,
able to be aware of the underlying platform. The main problems in this
field are the management of large parallelism degrees due to several
computing units, the heterogeneity of these devices, and the combination
of several kinds of parallelism in a single algorithm. These topics are
mainly investigated to gain the so-called exascale performance and, from
another side, to face new forms of distributed computing as cloud and
edge computing, as well as their interaction with HPC.

This workshop focuses specifically on Models, Methodologies, Algorithms,
and Environments to exploit all forms of parallelism and their combination
at all levels in the emerging HPC systems to gather the current state of
knowledge in the field.

TOPICS OF INTEREST INCLUDE, BUT ARE NOT LIMITED TO:

- Hybrid and hierarchical based parallel algorithms
- Multi-core and many-core parallel computing, GPU computing
- Architecture-aware parallelization on HPC platforms
- Auto tuning techniques for heterogeneous and parallel environments
- Performance analysis
- Techniques for multi-/many-core platforms, NUMA architectures, or
   accelerator components
- Task scheduling and load balancing among computing elements
- Synchronization and access to shared resources
- Multilevel cache management
- Computational kernels for scientific computing and applications
- Performance and scalability models
- Tools and programming environments supporting efficient usage of
   multilevel parallelism
- Resources virtualization
- High Performance cloud/edge/fog computing
- Intra/Infra Virtual machines high performance communications algorithms
- Fault tolerant implementation
