IMPACT 2015 - 5th 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 technical paper presentations and panel discussions. This is the fifth edition of IMPACT and is being organized in conjunction with with HiPEAC 2015 in Amsterdam, The Netherlands as a full-day workshop.
We welcome both theoretical and experimental papers on all aspects of polyhedral compilation and optimization. We also welcome 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

Submissions
Submissions should not exceed 8 pages (recommended 6 pages) formatted as per ACM proceedings format. When preparing your manuscript, please use the "Tighter Alternate style" available from http://www.acm.org/sigs/publications/proceedings-t... .
Submissions should be in PDF format and printable on US letter or A4 sized paper. Please send your submission by the (extended) deadline to:
impact-chairs-AT-lists.gforge.inria.fr
Please indicate in your email if you wish to submit as a:
regular paper
position paper
wild and crazy idea
tool demonstration
Proceedings will be published online. If the final version of an accepted paper does not sufficiently address the comments of the reviewers, then it may be accompanied by a note from the program committee. Publication at IMPACT will not prevent later publication in conferences or journals of the presented work.
