[hpc-announce] Call For Participation: Workshop on RISC-V and OpenPOWER in HPC, co-located with ICS'22

[Hans Vandierendonck]

Workshop on RISC-V and OpenPOWER in HPC Call For Participation 
June 27, 2022
Co-located with the ACM International Conference on Supercomputing (ICS) 2022 (held virtually)

The purpose of this workshop is to provide an overview of the advancements and challenges in RISC-V and OpenPower ISAs and how relevant those discoveries impact the HPC domain. In addition, apart from the actual architecture, also the surrounding environment needs to be taken into consideration. Hence, the workshop will also cover topics including toolchains, applications, and simulations.

The submission format is free, but abstracts must be limited to one page, be provided as a PDF file, and shall contain as a minimum: a title, names of the authors, their affiliations, and a description of the content. The abstract can be based on an already published work. If so, the original work shall be cited. One of the authors should be marked as a presenter and provide his email address for further contact.

Upon acceptance, the technical talk is expected to be 20 minutes long (including questions). Speakers should register for the ICS conference: https://ics2022.github.io/
