International Workshop on Autonomic and High Performance Computing
(AHPC 2011)
Call for Papers
As part of
The 2011 International Conference on High Performance Computing & Simulation
(HPCS 2011)
In Conjunction With
The International Wireless Communications and Mobile Computing Conference (IWCMC 2011)
July 4 – 8, 2011
Istanbul, Turkey
(Submission Deadline: February 28, 2011)
SCOPE AND OBJECTIVES
Due to the increasing complexity, scale and heterogeneity in computing systems and applications, including hardware, software, sensors, communication and networks, there are needs for Autonomic Computing (AC) focusing on self-manageable systems that exhibit self-configuration, self-healing, self-protection, self-optimization, and/or self-monitoring. It is getting even more critical with the ubiquitous permeation of embedded devices. The purpose of this workshop is intended to bring together specialists and researchers in those converging specialties to share views and address technical issues and developments for autonomic and high performance computing.
The Workshop topics include (but are not limited to) the following:
Autonomic computing systems that exhibit self-configuration, self-healing, self-protection, self-optimization, and/or self-monitoring
Software engineering principles and architectures
Data analysis and decision techniques
Monitoring systems
Theory and practice of autonomic systems
Management of resources including hardware, workloads, faults, security, power, and other challenges
Knowledge-based and/or intelligent user interfaces
Self-adaptability and self-management of context-aware systems
Modeling, virtualization, operating systems or application in autonomic computing
PAPER SUBMISSIONS
You are invited to submit original and unpublished research works on above and other topics related to autonomic and high performance computing. 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 authors 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. The full manuscript should be at most 7 pages using the two-column IEEE format. Additional pages will be charged additional fee. Please include page numbers on all preliminary submissions to make it easier for reviewers to provide helpful comments. Submit a PDF copy of your full manuscript via email to the Workshop organizers at alnashif@ece.arizona.edu and hariri@ece.arizona.edu.
Only PDF files will be accepted. 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 workshop. Accepted papers will be published in the conference proceedings that will be made available at the time of the meeting.
If you have any questions about paper submission or the workshop, please contact the organizers.
