===================================================================

[MLBench'25] Fifth Workshop on
Benchmarking and Performance of Machine Learning Workloads on Emerging Hardware

To be held with ACM International Conference on Architectural Support
for Programming Languages and Operating Systems (ASPLOS) and
co-located with EuroSys .
March 30, 2025
Rotterdam, Netherlands

About
--------
With evolving system architectures, hardware and software stacks,
diverse machine learning (ML) workloads, and data, it is important to
understand how these components interact with each other. Well-defined
benchmarking procedures help evaluate and reason the performance gains
with ML workload-to-system mappings. We welcome all novel submissions
in benchmarking machine learning workloads from all disciplines, such
as image and speech recognition, language processing, drug discovery,
simulations, and scientific applications.

Key problems that we seek to address are:
(i) which representative ML benchmarks cater to workloads seen in
industry, national labs, and interdisciplinary sciences;
(ii) how to characterize the ML workloads based on their interaction
with hardware;
(iii) which novel aspects of hardware, such as heterogeneity in
compute, memory, and networking, will drive their adoption;
(iv) performance modeling and projections to next-generation hardware.

Along with selected publications, the workshop program will also have
experts in these research areas presenting their recent work and
potential directions to pursue.

MLCommons will sponsor a best student paper award for an outstanding submission!

Call for Papers
-------------------
We solicit both full papers (8-10 pages) and short/position papers
(4-6 pages). Submissions are double-blinded. The page limit includes
figures, tables, and appendices, but excludes references.
Please use standard LaTeX or Word ACM templates. All submissions will
need to be made via EasyChair
(submission website:
https://urldefense.us/v3/__https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=mlbench25__;!!G_uCfscf7eWS!acPSh7d_4TM8U06hK_rvM88L2R6klGZYwVrqrgM33H8dLwUseVPADKVQJKV9fZSpiz8hC7dKvVcmGNiV8hfREUDu2A$ ). Each submission
will be reviewed by at least three reviewers from the program
committee. Papers will be reviewed for novelty, quality, technical
strength, and relevance to the workshop.
