Phoenix, AZ, USA, 22 June 2019. Part of ACM FCRC.

The goal of the NSF Workshop on Future Directions for Parallel and Distributed Computing is to elicit input from the research community to identify and promote important and groundbreaking research directions in the area of extremely scalable parallel and distributed computing. The workshop will bring together NSF Scalable Parallelism in the Extreme (SPX) Program PIs conducting research in this area and other researchers from relevant computer science disciplines who may bring novel ideas and perspectives.

The workshop will include breakout sessions to discuss research directions that address critical concerns in the design and implementation of extremely scalable parallel and distributed systems. It will broaden participants' perspectives and provide a venue to form new collaborations. It will produce a report describing the most important and promising research directions. The report will be submitted to NSF and made available to the broader research community, to inspire research in those directions.
