Runtime and Operating Systems for Supercomputers

ROSS 2012

Held in conjunction with ICS 2012, Venice, Italy, June 25-29, 2012

The complexity of node architectures in supercomputers increases as we cross petaflop milestones on the way towards Exascale. Increasing levels of parallelism in multi- and many-core chips and emerging heterogeneity of computational resources coupled with energy and memory constraints force a reevaluation of our approaches towards operating systems and runtime environments. The International Workshop on Runtime and Operating Systems for Supercomputers provides a forum for researchers to exchange ideas and discuss research questions that are relevant to upcoming supercomputers.

Topics of Interest

The topics include, but are not limited to:

OS and runtime system scalability on many-node and multi/many-core systems

specialized OSs for Supercomputing

distributed/hybrid/partitioned OSs and runtime systems for Supercomputing

fault tolerance

system noise analysis and prevention

interaction between middleware, runtime system, and the OS

I/O resource management and forwarding

parallel job startup

memory management and emerging memory technologies

real-time considerations for Supercomputing
