SCalA15: Sixth Workshop on Latest Advances in Scalable Algorithms for Large-Scale Systems

SESSION: SCalA15: Sixth Workshop on Latest Advances in Scalable Algorithms for Large-Scale Systems

EVENT TYPE: Workshops

EVENT TAG(S): SIGHPC Workshop, Applications, System Software, Algorithms

TIME: 9:00AM - 5:30PM

ROOM:Hilton Salon E

ABSTRACT:

Novel scalable scientific algorithms are needed to enable key science applications to exploit the computational power of large-scale systems, in particular, the current tier of leading petascale machines and the road to exascale as HPC systems continue to scale up in compute node and processor core count. These extreme-scale systems require novel scientific algorithms to hide network and memory latency, have very high computation/communication overlap, have minimal communication, have no synchronization points. With the advent of heterogeneous compute nodes employing standard processors and GPGPUs, scientific algorithms need to match these architectures to extract the most performance. Additionally, with the advent of Big Data, the requirement of key science applications employing such scalable mathematical methods and algorithms that are able to handle compute intensive applications and applications with Big Data at scale and are able to address fault-tolerance and resilience challenges of current- and future-generation extreme-scale HPC systems becomes tremendously important.

This 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).
