CIW-IUS23: Second Combined Workshop on Interactive and Urgent Supercomputing Hamburg, Germany, May 25, 2023 |
Conference website | https://www.interactivehpc.com/ |
Submission link | https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=ciwius23 |
Submission deadline | March 31, 2023 |
In conjunction with ISC23, 25th May 2023 in Hamburg Germany
- Submission deadline: March 31st, 2023 (AOE)
- Author notification: April 10, 2023
We invite submission of 6-12 page papers that will be peer reviewed.
We welcome original research, work-in-progress papers, and positionpapers related to the interactive usage of high-performance computing. Accepted authors will both be invited to speak at the workshop and to submit their papers for publication in ISC23 workshop proceedings.
Scope
This workshop will bring together stakeholders, researchers, and practitioners from across the HPC community who are working, or interested, in the fields of interactive HPC and the use of supercomputing for urgent decision-making. Success stories, case studies, and best practices will be shared across the two themes with a view to enhancing the communities' activities and identifying new opportunities for collaboration. The challenges associated with interactive and urgent HPC are difficult ones, and productively supporting these capabilities requires a number of advances across a range of technical, policy, and even sociological realms. While there are multiple efforts to use HPC for disaster response, and progress has been made on interactivity in HPC, the effort is largely disjointed, piecemeal, and done on an institute-by-institute basis. With so much replication of effort, there is significant value to be unlocked if the community can come together to address the issues relevant to both interactive and urgent HPC.
Call for papers
We invite you to submit 6-12 page papers detailing original work or work in progress. Position papers are also welcome. Appropriate topic areas include:
- Example use-cases and case-studies that use HPC for interactivity and/or urgent decision making
- Techniques for integrating HPC workflows with data driven approaches
- Approaches to verify and validate unreliable real-time data, for instance from sensors, IoT, and satellites
- System design for data reduction and pre-processing at source, for instance using edge computing and heterogeneous resources such as FPGAs
- Implementation experiences and lessons learned by staff at HPC centers
- Algorithmic techniques to guarantee result generation in specifictime frames, such as result refinement which generates more accurate results as time progresses
- Studies of leveraging HPC for workloads with real-time time constraints
- Changes to existing HPC technologies and policies that are required to support using HPC interactively
- The ability for HPC codes to adapt their resource requirements dynamically, for instance via elastic compute
- Visualization and presentation techniques to support rapid and accurate urgent decision making by the end user
- Reduction and feature extraction of results to highlight critical issues of interest
- Complimenting results with provenance data for additional contextand certainty
- Maintaining security while providing interactivity in supercomputing
- Strategies for leveraging interactivity for reproducible science
- Impact of increased interactivity on how HPC centers operate
Submission Guidelines
