Call For Papers:


Partitioned Global Address Space [PGAS] and shared memory programming models such as UPC,
Co-Array Fortran, OpenSHMEM and OpenMP offer mechanisms to expose applications to globally
shared memory and native thread/task parallelism. However, with the advent of
heterogeneous computing architectures, there exists a significant gap in coupling PGAS-style
languages to non-traditional computing devices such as GPU's and reconfigurable processors.
This workshop shall serve as a forum to present research developments and language-extensions
for tightly coupled PGAS/shared memory languages and heterogeneous architectures.
Papers, language-extension proposals and demos are solicited in, but not limited to, the
following areas:

* Heterogeneous Memory: Memory locality in heterogeneous PGAS applications;
: memory performance considerations;
: data movement activities in heterogeneous memory systems
* Language Extensions: Language extensions to directly address thread/task-level memory locality;
: Tiered PGAS resource utilization; portable heterogeneous PGAS applications
* Compilers and Runtime Systems: Hybrid PGAS compilers;
: mixed-architecture object payloads;
: scalable, heterogeneous runtime systems for PGAS
* Debugging/Performance Tools and Techniques: Debugging PGAS-enabled, heterogeneous architectures;
: numerical accuracy in heterogeneous PGAS
