Peter Bramm, Parallel Scientific and Xyratex, USA
Title: "Data Access, Management and Storage: The Road Ahead"

Contributed Papers

The technical program will consist of 41 contributed papers chosen
from submissions from all over the world. The papers will be presented
in a single-track multiple session format covering important and
timely topics such as performance consistency, virtualization, fault
tolerance and power management for large scale HPC and Cloud
infrastructures, routing, and programming support, shared memory
abstractions and applications for multi-core and GPU systems.


Student Research Symposium

The conference will feature the fifth student research symposium on
High Performance Computing on December 18, aimed at stimulating and
fostering student research, and providing an international forum to
highlight student research accomplishments. The one-day symposium will
feature brief presentations by student authors on their research and a
poster exhibit, and will be followed by a reception and
industry-student mixer.


Workshops
As part of the conference, 4 workshops will be hosted on December 18, 2012

Workshop on Performance Engineering and Applications (WPEA)

Graphs (ParGraph)
International Workshop on Cloud Computing Applications (IWCA)
Workshop on Massive Data Analytics on Scalable Systems (DataMASS)


Special Session on Indian Petascale Initiative: Roadmap, Challenges,
and Opportunities

December 21, 2012 (10am-noon)

This plenary session will discuss the Indian Petascale initiative, the
specific focus on hardware and software systems and the associated
research components, the computational problems that are likely to be
addressed, the current roadmap, the challenges and opportunities that
lie ahead, and lessons learnt/recommendations from Petascale
initiatives in other countries. The session will feature eminent
speakers from India and abroad who have played leading roles in
various supercomputing initiatives.


Industry, Research and Users Symposium
