CALL FOR PAPERS

2nd International Workshop on GPUs and Scientific Applications (GPUScA 2011)

Galveston Island, Texas, USA, October 10, 2011, in conjunction with PACT 2011

Submission: June 28, 2011

Context

GPUs are cost-effective platforms for computational intensive

applications providing tremendous peak performance. However, it is a

major challenge to deliver the intrinsic performance of such

architectures to end applications. The goal of this workshop is to

bring together GPU experts with computational science experts. The

workshop addresses programming approaches (stream programming) and key

techniques to leverage the computing power of GPUs. Experiences gained

while adapting scientific codes to run efficiently on such

architectures are welcome. We solicit unpublished papers about

research challenges and advances addressing porting of scientific

codes and algorithms to GPU platforms.

Topics of Interest

The topics of the workshop include but are not limited to:

* Scientific applications optimized for GPUs

* Programming approaches for multicore CPUs and GPUs

* Stream computing

* Programming environments for GPUs

* Benchmarking/measurements for GPUs

* GPU architectures

* OpenCL and CUDA

Submission Information

The papers should be prepared using the ACM SIG Proceedings format,

and should be no longer than 8 pages. Submitted papers will be

carefully evaluated based on originality, significance to workshop

topics, technical soundness, and presentation quality.

The reviewing process will include 3 reviews for each submission and

will be double-blind. Hence, submissions must not reveal the authors'

identities, and you should refer to your own previous work in the

third person.

At least one of the authors must register and attend the workshop to

present the work in order that the accepted paper will be put into the

proceedings. Accepted papers will be included in preliminary workshop

proceedings and distributed at the workshop.

Extended versions of the best papers will be published in the

International Journal of Computational Science and Engineering (IJCSE)

as part of the Special Issue on: GPUs and Accelerators for Scientific

Applications.
