Call for Papers

GENERAL INFORMATION

The HPC'2020 site is available here.

The 2019 Spring Simulation Multi-Conference will feature the 27^th High Performance Computing Symposium (HPC 2019), devoted to the impact of high performance computing and communications on simulations.

Advances in novel and heterogeneous architectures, high-end computers, large data stores are ushering in a new era of high performance parallel and distributed simulations. Along with these new capabilities come new challenges in computing and system modeling. The goal of HPC 2019 is to encourage innovation in high performance computing and communication technologies and to promote synergistic advances in modeling methodologies and simulation. It will promote the exchange of ideas and information between universities, industry, supercomputing centers, and national laboratories about new developments in system modeling, high performance computing and communication, scientific computing as well as simulation.

Topics of interest include but are not limited to:

• High performance computing issues in Big Data analytics
• High performance/large scale application case studies
• GPU for general purpose computations (GPGPU)
• Accelerator and co-processor computing
• Multicore and many-core computing
• Exascale challenges
• Power aware computing
• Cloud, distributed, and grid computing
• Asynchronous numerical methods and programming
• Hybrid system modeling and simulation
• Hybrid parallel or distributed algorithms
• Large scale visualization and data management
• Tools and environments for coupling parallel codes
• Parallel algorithms and architectures
• High performance software tools and techniques
• Resilience at the simulation level
• Reproducibility of application performance results

PAPER SUBMISSIONS

Contributed papers. Original, high-quality technical papers are solicited for review, possible presentation and subsequent publication in the conference proceedings. Papers are max 12 pages long with single column format (see author's kit). Papers must not have appeared before (or be pending) in a journal or conference with published proceedings, nor may they be under review or submitted to another forum during SpringSim’19 review process. All submissions will be peer reviewed and feedback will be provided. Authors of papers accepted at symposiums and their tracks are expected to attend the conference, present their work to their peers, transfer copyright, and pay a conference registration fee at the time their camera-ready paper is submitted. Papers registered and presented will be included in the conference proceedings, archived in the ACM Digital Library, and indexed in DBLP and SCOPUS. Submit a paper at this link.

SPONSORS

With the sponsorship from Manning, there will be a raffle for five free copies of "Modern Fortran" e-book by Milan Curcic. There also will be 40% off discount code to be announced during the conference, good for any of their book in any format.

BEST PAPER AWARD

A paper will be chosen to receive the HPC 2019 Best Paper Award and to compete for the SpringSim'19 Best Paper Award, which will be recognized in an awards ceremony before a plenary lecture. The last year's award winners are listed at the HPC 2018 website.
