[Caml-list] HLPP2013 Paris July2013: Third Call for Papers

CALL FOR PAPERS

International Symposium on High-level Parallel Programming and Applications


HLPP2013,  Paris 1-2 July 2013

Aims and scope: 
As processor and system manufacturers increase the amount of both inter-
and intra-chip parallelism it becomes crucial to provide the software
industry with high-level, clean and efficient tools for parallel
programming. Parallel and distributed programming methodologies are
currently dominated by low-level techniques such as send/receive message
passing, or equivalently unstructured shared memory
mechanisms. Higher-level, structured approaches offer many possible
advantages and have a key role to play in the scalable exploitation of
ubiquitous parallelism. 

Since 2001 <http://www.hlpp.eu> the HLPP series of meetings has been a
forum for researchers developing state-of-the-art concepts, tools and
applications for high-level parallel programming. The general emphasis
is on software quality, programming productivity and high-level
performance models. The 2013 symposium will be a self-contained event,
held in central Paris. 

Invited speaker: Leslie Valiant (Harvard University) inventor of the
BSP paradigm and 2010 Turing award.

Topics:  HLPP 2013 invites the submission of papers written in English
on all topics including (but not limited to) the following aspects
of multi-core, parallel, distributed, grid and cloud computing: 

    High-­level programming and performance models (BSP, CGM, LogP,
    MPM, etc.) and tools 
    Declarative parallel programming methodologies 
    Algorithmic skeletons and constructive methods 
    Declarative parallel programming languages and libraries: semantics
    and implementation 
    Verification of declarative parallel and distributed programs 
    Software synthesis, automatic code generation for parallel programming 
    Model-driven software engineering with parallel programs 
    High-level methods for heterogeneous/hierarchical platforms: GPGPU,
    FPGA etc.  
    High-level parallel methods for large structured and
    semi-structured datasets 
    Applications of parallel systems using high­level languages and tools 
    Teaching experience with high­level tools and methods   

Proceedings:  
Authors of accepted papers will be expected to register and to present
their paper at the symposium. 
All accepted papers will be eligible for publication in a special issue
of Springer's International Journal of Parallel Programming

Paper submission:   
Submitted papers must not have been published or simultaneously
submitted elsewhere.  Submission should include a cover page with
authors' names, affiliation addresses, fax numbers, phone numbers, and
email addresses.  Please, indicate clearly the corresponding author and
include up to 6 keywords from the above list of topics and an abstract
of no more than 450 words.  Submissions should cover approximately 15
pages and camera-ready versions will be 20 pages long.  Full manuscripts
should be prepared with the IJSS latex macro package
submitted via the IJPP online editorial system
<http://www.editorialmanager.com/ijpp/>.  Only source latex files will
be acepted by the system. Each paper will receive a minimum of three
reviews.  Papers will be selected based on their originality, relevance,
technical clarity and presentation.  Authors of accepted papers must
guarantee that their papers will be registered and presented at the
symposium.  Accepted papers will be made available at the time of the
meeting and published in the symposium proceedings.
