CSI-EXTREMESCALE
Workshop on Computational Science
for Extreme Scale Computing (CSI-EXTREMESCALE)
January 29th to 31st 2013, Cancun, Mexico
The general goal of the meeting, as a continuation of the previous
series of Workshops, is to bring together distinguished researchers from
around the world and México to present and discuss the latest advances in
Computational Science for Extreme Scale Computing.
The
specific goals of the workshop are:
- To identify the latest developments in Computational Science for
Extreme Scale Computing.
- To identify joint research opportunities in the fields of
Computational Science for Extreme Scale Computing.
- To form multidisciplinary groups that will scope joint research
initiatives and projects.
Outline the main issues and opportunities contained in the European
Unions Framework Program 7 for scientific research, as well a current
programs funded by the National Science Foundation and other scientific
research programs and discuss opportunities for possible joint research
projects.
It is envisaged that this will help to establish further collaboration
with key partners in Mexico.
There will be series of talks and discussions on the future developments
as well as research projects scoping.
Extended versions of the best papers of the workshop will be published in
a special issue of the Journal of Computational Science .
Topics:
The workshop focuses on novel
scalable mathematical methods and scientific algorithms which are needed
in order to enable key science applications to exploit the computational
power of large-scale systems. These extreme-scale systems require novel
scientific algorithms to hide network and memory latency, have very high
computation/communication overlap, have minimal communication, and have
no synchronization points. Scientific algorithms for multi-petaflop and
exa-flop systems also need to be fault tolerant and fault resilient,
since the probability of faults increases with scale. Key science
applications require novel mathematical models and system software that
address the scalability and resilience challenges of current- and
future-generation extreme-scale HPC systems.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
? Novel mathematical methods and scientific algorithms that improve
performance, scalability and resilience.
? Porting scientific algorithms and applications to many-core and
heterogeneous architectures
? Performance and resilience limitations of scientific algorithms and
applications at scale
? Scientific algorithms that can exploit extreme concurrency.
? Naturally fault tolerant, self-healing or fault oblivious scientific
algorithms
? Programming models and system software support for algorithm
scalability and resilience

International Collaboration
This workshop presents a unique opportunity for collaboration under
the EU Framework 7 Program
(
http://cordis.europa.eu/fp7/ict/) and, also, there are several areas
funds available for collaboration between Mexican researchers and
researcher in the United States, accessed mainly through the National
Science Foundation calls (CreativeIT
http://www.nsf.gov/funding/pgm_summ.jsp?pims_id=501096 and PIRE
(Partnerships for Research)
http://www.nsf.gov/funding/pgm_summ.jsp?pims_id=12819)
This workshop, organized by Tecnologico de Monterrey, Emory University
and Barcelona Supercomputing Center, aims to improve the possibilities to
participate in FP 7 research projects as well as collaboration with USA
for the participants. All participants, Mexican and non Mexican, are
associated with prestigious research institutions and universities, with
long experience in proposal integration and international
collaboration.
The workshop will take place January 29th to 31st 2013 in Cancun,
Mexico at the NH-Krystal. A participation of between 30 and 40
researchers is expected from many different countries.
Registration:
The registration fee is
150 EURO. Deadline is the 15th January 2013 at 5pm Spanish time. The fee
will then rise to 200 EURO.
