IMPACT 2013 - IMPACT - International Workshop on Polyhedral Compilation Techniques

With ubiquitous multicore processors and the increasing role of hardware accelerators, polyhedral compilation techniques have gained a lot of attention in both academia and industry. Polyhedral compilation provides a homogeneous framework to design effective optimizations for high performance computing, addressing coarse-grain and fine-grain parallelism, distributed- and shared-memory parallelism. IMPACT is a unique workshop focusing exclusively on polyhedral compilation technologies, bringing together researchers and practitioners for a high-quality one-day event including keynote, technical paper presentations, and panel discussions. This is the third edition of IMPACT and is being organized in conjunction with with HiPEAC 2013 in Berlin, Germany as a full-day workshop.
We welcome both theoretical and experimental papers on all aspects of polyhedral compilation and optimization. We strongly encourage submissions describing preliminary results, crazy new ideas, position papers, experience reports, and available tools, with an aim to stimulate discussions, collaborations, and advances in the field. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
program optimization (automatic parallelization, tiling, etc.)
code generation
data/communication management on GPUs, accelerators and distributed systems
hardware/high-level synthesis for affine programs
static analysis
program verification
model checking
theoretical foundations of the polyhedral model
extensions of the polyhedral model
scalability and robustness of polyhedral compilation techniques
tool demonstration.
