The fifth Chameleon User Meeting Community Workshop on “Practical Reproducibility in HPC” will be held Monday, Nov. 18 at Terminus 330, 330 Marietta St. NW, Atlanta, from 8:30 am to 6:30 pm ET.
The workshop, colocated in Atlanta during the annual SC24 supercomputing conference, aims to advance the concept of practical reproducibility in HPC — a practice in which reproducing results becomes a mainstream method of scientific exploration. The event will provide a forum for debate on the tools, services, and approaches that best support reproducibility in HPC and systems science, concluding with a comprehensive report that captures the community’s collective knowledge and recommendations for advancing practical reproducibility in HPC and systems research.
This workshop is supported by the Chameleon project, a cutting-edge cloud platform designed for computer science research. Chameleon has been instrumental as a platform for reproducibility in major conferences, including most recently serving as the default platform for the SC24 Reproducibility Initiative as well as supporting others like ICPE, ACM CSS, EuroSys, FAST, OSDI/ATC, and more.
Featured keynotes including Torsten Hoefler, Professor of Computer Science at ETH Zurich, and Kate Keahey, Senior Computer Scientist at Argonne National Laboratory and PI of Chameleon. These talks will provide valuable insights into the state-of-the-art in HPC reproducibility and future directions.
