27th International Conference on Supercomputing June 10 - 14, 2013 University of Oregon, Eugene, OR USA Sponsored by ACM/SIGARCH http://www.ics-conference.org/ CALL FOR PAPERS ICS is the premier international forum for the presentation of research results in high-performance computing systems. ICS 2013 will be held at the University of Oregon, Eugene, Oregon, in the heart of the Willamette Valley. Papers are solicited on all aspects of the research, development, and application of large-scale, high- performance experimental and commercial systems, including (but not limited to): * Computer architecture and hardware, including multicore and multiprocessor systems, accelerators, memory, interconnection network and storage and file systems; * High-performance computational and programming models, including new languages and middleware for high performance computing, auto-tuning and function-specific code generators; * High performance system software, including compilers, runtime systems, programming and development tools, performance tools, and operating systems; * Hardware and software solutions for heterogeneity, reliability, and power efficiency; * Languages, runtimes, and hardware for ?big data? scenarios with a focus on high-performance data analytics, including scalable data structures, dealing with large quantities of unstructured data, online monitoring and I/O, and parallel visualization; * Computationally challenging scientific and commercial applications, particularly studies and experiences on large-scale systems, and supercomputing on big data problems; * Large scale installations, including case studies to guide the design of future systems and solutions for efficiently scaling power, performance and reliability; * Novel infrastructures for internet, grid and cloud computing; * Performance evaluation studies and theoretical underpinnings of any of the above topics. Of particular interest are papers on any aspects of extreme-scale and heterogeneous supercomputing systems, integrated HPC software stacks, and supercomputing applications in science and engineering. Papers should not exceed 10 pages in the ACM format. * Please note the change from the original CFP which limited submissions to 12 pages * The review process will include a rebuttal period.
