CALL FOR PARTICIPATION

ESSA 2022: 3rd International Workshop on Extreme-Scale Storage and Analysis
(Formarly HPS: International Workshop on High Performance Storage)

Held June 3rd 2022 in conjunction with IPDPS 2022

https://sites.google.com/view/essa-2022/

ESSA succeeds the international workshop on High Performance Storage (HPS) to enlarge the scope to include data processing and analytics explicitly.

Our goals in the ESSA Workshop are to bring together expert researchers and developers in data-related areas such as storage, I/O, processing and analytics on extreme scale infrastructures including HPC systems, clouds, edge systems or hybrid combinations of these, to discuss advances and possible solutions to the new challenges we face. We expect the ESSA Workshop to result in lively interactions over a wide range of interesting topics about high performane storage, data processing, and analysis.

Keynote Speaker

Robert B. Ross (Argonne National Laboratory)

Robert Ross is a Senior Computer Scientist at Argonne National Laboratory and a Senior Fellow at the Northwestern-Argonne Institute for Science and Engineering. He is the Director of the DOE SciDAC RAPIDS Institute for Computer Science, Data, and Artificial Intelligence. Rob’s research interests are in system software for high performance computing systems, in particular distributed storage systems and libraries for I/O and message passing. Rob received his Ph.D. in Computer Engineering from Clemson University in 2000. Rob was a recipient of the 2004 Presidential Early Career Award for Scientists and Engineers and the 2020 Ernest Orlando Lawrence Award, and he was named an ACM Fellow in 2021.

Invited Speakers

Lavanya Ramakrishnan (Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory)

Lavanya Ramakrishnan is a Senior Scientist and Division Deputy in the Scientific Data Division at Lawrence Berkeley National Lab. Her research interests are in building software tools for computational and data-intensive science with a focus on workflow, resource, and data management. More recently, she has been using user research methods to understand as well as verify/validate the context of use and social challenges that often impact tool design and development. She currently leads several project teams that consist of a mix of social scientists, software engineers, and computer scientists.

Johann Lombardi (Intel Corporation)

Johann Lombardi is a senior principal engineer in the Super Computing Group (SCG) at Intel. He is the lead architect of the Distributed Asynchronous Object Store (DAOS). Prior to DAOS, Johann led the sustaining team in charge of the Lustre filesystem worldwide support for 5 years at Cluster Filesystem, Sun, Oracle and Whamcloud. He then transitioned to research programs (Fast Forward, ESSIO & Path Forward) at Intel to lead the development of a nextgen storage stack for Exascale HPC, Big Data and AI that resulted into DAOS.
