MuCoCoS 2014 - Seventh International Workshop on Multi-/Many-core Computing Systems? MuCoCoS 2014

The pervasiveness of homogeneous and heterogeneous multi-core and many-core processors, in a large spectrum of systems from embedded and general-purpose to high-end computing systems, poses major challenges to the software industry. In general, there is no guarantee that software developed for a particular architecture will run on another architecture. Furthermore, ensuring that the software preserves some aspects of performance behavior (such as temporal or energy efficiency) across different such architectures is an open research issue. Therefore, a focus of this workshop is on language level, system software and architectural solutions for performance portability across different architectures and for automated performance tuning.
The topics of the MuCoCoS workshop include but are not limited to:
Programming models, languages, libraries and compilation techniques
Run-time systems and hardware support
Automatic performance tuning and optimization techniques
Patterns, algorithms and data structures for multi-/many-core systems
Performance measurement, modeling, analysis and tuning
Case studies highlighting performance portability and tuning.
As the seventh workshop in the series MuCoCoS 2008 (Barcelona, Spain), MuCoCoS 2009 (Fukuoka, Japan), MuCoCoS 2010 (Krakow, Poland), MuCoCoS 2011 (Seoul, Korea), MuCoCoS 2012 (Salt Lake City, USA), and MuCoCoS 2013 (Edinburgh, UK), MuCoCoS 2014 will be held in Porto, PT, in conjunction with Euro-Par Euro-Par 2014.
