Call for Presentations and Participation at the

19th Annual Workshop on Charm++ and its Applications

 

October 18-19, 2021

Virtual Event

 

Submission Deadline: September 30, 2021

Website: https://charm.cs.illinois.edu/workshops/charmWorkshop2021

 

Note: Due to COVID-19, this year’s workshop will be held as a fully virtual event.

 

Authors are invited to submit abstracts describing research and development in the broad themes of parallel processing emphasized by Charm++, AMPI, and Charm4Py including runtime adaptivity, message-driven execution, task-based scheduling, automated resource management, and applications using these themes. Topics of interest include:

 

  - Parallel algorithms and applications, especially those using Charm++, AMPI, and Charm4Py

  - Parallel libraries and frameworks, especially those supporting runtime adaptivity

  - Novel parallel programming models and abstractions

  - Adaptive runtime management, including communication, power, energy, and heat

  - Dynamic load balancing

  - Within-node parallelism, tasks, and accelerators

  - Fault tolerance and resilience

  - Tools and techniques for performance analysis, tuning and debugging

  - Extensions and new features in Charm++

  - Massively parallel processing on future machines

 

Submissions should be in the form of extended abstracts from one to three pages. The presentations will be posted at the workshop website, but there will be no published proceedings. Authors are encouraged to publish them in other conferences or journals. Please send any questions to Zane Fink <zanef2 AT illinois.edu>.
