DMCC 2016 - 8th International Workshop on Dependable Many-Core Computing (DMCC 2016)

Computing systems with a large number of processing units are increasingly common, both in the form of processors employing multiple execution cores (e.g., multi-core CPUs, GPUs), or computing clusters with a large number of nodes. These many-core architectures bring up new capabilities, opportunities, as well as challenges. As the number of cores increases, so does the probability to have faults, both due to hardware issues (e.g., physical defects introduced during fabrication), software problems (e.g., a single crashed process bringing down the whole computation) or communication issues in the network infrastructure.
This workshop focuses on software and/or hardware solutions to dependability and fault-tolerance in multi- and many-core systems.
