[hpc-announce] IWOMP 2024 - 20th International Workshop on OpenMP - CFP

[Klinkenberg, Jannis]

CALL FOR PAPERS:

 

-----------------------------------------

+ IWOMP 2024

+ 20th International Workshop on OpenMP

+ September 23-26, 2024

+ Pawsey Supercomputing Research Centre, Perth, AU

+ https://www.iwomp.org

 

+ Submission deadline: Friday, June 7 2024 (AoE)

-----------------------------------------

 

The International Workshop on OpenMP (IWOMP) is the annual workshop
dedicated to the promotion and advancement of all aspects of parallel
programming with OpenMP. This pioneering workshop has been attracting an
international audience of leading academic and industrial experts since 2005
and is the premier forum to present and discuss issues, trends, recent
research ideas, and results related to parallel programming with OpenMP.

 

We solicit quality submissions of unpublished technical papers that detail
innovative, original research and development related to OpenMP.

 

IWOMP 2024 will be hosted by the Pawsey Supercomputing Research Centre in
Perth, Australia and will be colocated with EuroMPI 2024.

 

BACKGROUND

------------

As computing hardware has evolved from simple core reproduction to advanced
SIMD units, deeper memories, and heterogeneous computing, OpenMP has also
evolved and extended its application interface to harness new capabilities
throughout the spectrum of hardware advances. The 5.0, 5.1 and 5.2 versions
of the OpenMP specification have established OpenMP as the leading API for
on-node heterogeneous parallelism that supports all versions of the C/C++
and Fortran base programming languages.

 

Advances in technologies, such as multicore processors and OpenMP devices
(accelerators such as GPGPUs, DSPs or FPGAs), Multiprocessor Systems on a
Chip (MPSoCs), and recent developments in OpenMP itself (e.g.,
metadirectives and variants for selecting device- and architecture-specific
directives) present new opportunities and challenges for software and
hardware developers. Recent advances in the C, C++ and Fortran base
languages also offer interesting opportunities and challenges to the OpenMP
programming model.

 

Theme for 2024: Advancing OpenMP for Future Accelerators

----------------------------------------------------------------

Future HPC systems will include tighter integration of multiple compute
devices, such as CPUs, GPUs, FPGAs and even QPUs. Therefore, programming
model support for handling multiple levels of parallelism and managing data
across memory spaces is growing in importance. Further, the diversity in
compute architectures makes programming mechanisms that enable portability
and performance portability essential. This year's theme highlights OpenMP
extensions, implementations and applications that facilitate using such
systems and papers that detail them are particularly welcome.

 

TOPICS

------------

The topics include but are not limited to the following:

 

+ Accelerated computing and offloading to devices

+ Applications (in any domain) that rely on OpenMP

+ Data mining and analysis or text processing and OpenMP

+ Machine learning and OpenMP

+ Memory model

+ Memory policies and management

+ Performance analysis and modeling

+ Performance portability

+ Proposed OpenMP extensions

+ Runtime environment

+ Scientific and numerical computations

+ Tasking

+ Tools

+ Vectorization

 

SUBMISSIONS

------------

Submitted papers for review should be limited to 12 pages (not counting
references). Authors of accepted papers will be asked to prepare a final
paper of up to 15 pages (including references).

 

+ Submission deadline: Friday, June 7 2024 (AoE)

+ Acceptance notifications: Friday, July 5 2024 (AoE)

+ Camera-ready copy deadline: Friday, July 26 2024 (AoE)
