NCSA researcher to edit special issue of IEEE PDS

News from NCSA this week

NCSA researcher Volodymyr Kindratenko and colleagues David Bader (Georgia Institute of Technology) and David Kaeli (Northeastern University) will guest edit a special issue of the journal IEEE Transactions on Parallel and Distributed Systems that will focus on high-performance computing with accelerators.

…The IEEE Transactions on Parallel and Distributed Systems seeks articles for a July 2010 special issue focusing on efforts dedicated to the use of accelerators in high-performance computing. The guest editors invite papers that address the challenge of building and using such systems. Particular areas of interest include:

  • design, analysis, and implementation of novel accelerator processors, systems, and architectures
  • integration of accelerators with high-performance computing systems, performance measurement on experimental systems, reliability and fault-tolerance
  • languages and compilers, profiling and debugging tools for accelerator-based computing
  • run-time environments, operating system support, scheduling and task partitioning for accelerator-based computing
  • programming models, analysis and design of algorithms for accelerator-based computing

Submissions due Sep 24.
