Call for Papers
June 13-15, 2018: Conference, Beijing, China
Sponsored by ACM/SIGARCH
ICS is the premier international forum for the presentation of research results
in high-performance computing. The 2018 conference will be held in Beijing,
China.
Papers are solicited on all aspects of research, development, and application
of high-performance computing systems, including but not limited to the
following:
1. Computer architecture and hardware, including multicore, many-core and
multiprocessor systems from small to very large scales, components in such
systems such as accelerators, memory systems, storage architectures,
interconnection networks at various levels, and heterogeneous systems;
2. Programming and execution models for high-performance computing, including
new paradigms, languages, task creation and specification models,
domain-specific language/programming support;
3. Static and dynamic compilation: optimization techniques to exploit all
aspects of high performance architectures and auto-tuning techniques;
4. Runtime and system software support for high-performance computing,
including task and resource management at chip-level, cluster-level, up to the
scale of large-scale academic/commercial computing service infrastructure,
debugging, fault-tolerance, power/energy management, file systems, and
performance evaluation/monitoring;
5. New computational algorithms and their applications for high performance
computing systems;
6. Workload characterization and empirical studies especially those on new
scientific and commercial applications that pose significant challenges, and
studies of highly experimental real systems;
7. Data intensive high performance computing: system support, algorithm design
and application development for high performance computing that deal with
large-scale collected data sets.
The review process will include a rebuttal period, and the papers will be
judged based on novelty, technical soundness, and potential impact on the
field.

SUBMISSIONS
The submission site is at easychair. Use the “sigconf” style in the ACM
2018 template. Extensive documentation can be found at the ACM site . Submissions
should be a maximum of ten (10) pages, including references.
Submissions (both abstract and paper) should be prepared for double blind
review, i.e., without author names, or other identifying material in the
submission. Authors should refer to themselves in the 3rd person when citing
their own work.
The submission system requests information about the authors. This information
will not be given to the reviewers.
