InteractiveHPC-2022: Fifth International Workshop on Interactive High Performance Computing Messe Hamburg, Germany, June 2, 2022 |

Submission deadline | April 4, 2022 |
Interactive exploration and analysis of large data sets, intelligent simulation workflows that combine interactive analysis and AI techniques with modeling and simulation, interactive preparation and debugging of large-scale scientific simulations, in-situ visualization, and application steering are all compelling scenarios for High Performance Computing sytems. However, a range of technical, organizational, and sociological challenges must be overcome to make these interactive workflows mainstream in HPC centers: What simulation scenarios or problem domains can benefit most from interactivity? How can we simplify the toolchain? What center policies are needed to support highly interactive workflows? The goal of this workshop is to bring together domain scientists, tool developers, and HPC center administrators to identify the scientific impact and technical challenges of highly interactive access to HPC resources.
Submission Guidelines
We invite submissions of 6-12 page papers on original work, work-in-progress, or position papers. Authors of selected papers will be invited to speak at the workshop and papers published in the ISC 2022 workshop proceedings with Springer. The proceedings will appear as post-conference workshop proceedings. The idea behind post-conference proceedings is that they give the authors the flexibility to adjust their contributions slightly based on the feedback given during the workshops.
