Aims and Scope

The Conference on Advanced Topics and Auto Tuning in High-Performance Scientific Computing focuses on the scientific impacts due to the latest computer architectures and the approaches to achieve high-performance computing on these leading-edge computers. Advances in many-core architectures and high-end computers have unveiled their significances in the scientific discoveries and engineering achievements. The complexity of these newly developed computers, however, also leads to contemporary challenges to achieve the best efficiency of the highly promising computational capabilities. The conference encourages interdisciplinary communications between researchers from applied mathematics, statistics, computer science, physical sciences, engineering and industry to prompt innovations and breakthroughs in this exciting field. The main themes include, but not limited to, simulations, numerical methods, applications, hardware, and particularly software and algorithm auto-tuning via statistical methods.
