SRS 2013 - HiPC Student Research Symposium

HiPC 2013 will feature the fifth student research symposium on High Performance Computing (HPC) aimed at stimulating and fostering student research, and providing an international forum to highlight student research accomplishments. The symposium will also expose students to the best practices in HPC in academia and industry. The one-day symposium will feature brief presentations by student authors on their research, followed by a poster exhibit. Short invited talks by leading HPC researchers/ practitioners will be included in the program. The Conference Reception and Student Symposium Poster Exhibits will provide an opportunity for students to interact with HPC researchers and practitioners (and recruiters) from academia and industry. For additional details, please contact the Symposium Co-Chairs.

Eligibility
The research work presented in the submission should primarily be the result of student research. Accepted papers and posters should be presented by a student author. The student author should have been a full-time student at some point in 2013. Non-student co-authors are permitted.
Topics
All topics relevant to the HiPC conference are of interest to this symposium.
Topics of interest include but are not limited to:
High-Performance Computing
Parallel and Distributed Algorithms/Systems
Parallel Languages and Programming Environments
Hybrid Parallel Programming with GPUs and Accelerators
Load Balancing, Scheduling and Resource Management
Resilient/Fault-Tolerant Algorithms and Systems
Scientific/Engineering/Commercial Applications and Workloads
Emerging Applications such as Biotechnology and Nanotechnology
Cluster, Cloud, and Grid Computing
Heterogeneous Computing
Interconnection Networks and Architectures
Scalable Servers and Systems
High Performance/Scalable Storage Systems
Power-Efficient and Reconfigurable Architectures
Compiler Technologies for High-Performance Computing
Software Support and Advanced Micro-architecture Techniques
Operating Systems for Scalable High-Performance Computing
Awards and Scholarships
Awards for Best Poster and Best Presentation will be presented at the symposium. We expect a total of INR 50,000 for the awards from the IEEE Technical Committee on Parallel Processing.
Students from Indian academic institutions are encouraged to apply for the HiPC travel scholarship. The conference expects to award travel scholarship to at least one student author of each accepted submission from Indian academic institutions who apply. In addition, highly motivated students who wish to attend the conference but do not have a submission, may also apply for these scholarships. Details on applying will be announced later.
A book containing the resumes of the students participating in the symposium will be compiled and made available to the sponsors of the HiPC 2013conference.
