They may present irregular data structures, control flow or communication. Current supercomputing systems are organized around components optimized for data locality and regular computation. Developing irregular applications on current machines demands a substantial effort, and often leads to poor performance. However, solving these applications efficiently is a key requirement for next generation systems.=0AThe solutions needed to address these challenges can only come by considering the problem from all perspectives: from micro- to system-architectures, from compilers to languages, from libraries to runtimes, from algorithm design to data characteristics. Only collaborative efforts among researchers with different expertise, including end users, domain experts, and computer scientists, could lead to significant breakthroughs. This workshop aims at bringing together scientists with all these different backgrounds to discuss, define and design methods and technologies for efficiently supporting irregular applications on current and future architectures.=0A=0AThis workshop will produce a refereed proceedings that will be available through the ACM Digital Library and IEEE Xplore (free of charge during and immediately after SC, and free after that to SIGHPC members).=0A=0AMore at: http://hpc.pnl.gov/IA3 SUMMARY:IA^3 2015: Fifth Workshop on Irregular Applications: Architecture and Algorithms PRIORITY:3 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
