Recent advances in computer architecture and computing systems (such as, multicore processors and hybrid systems with accelerators) have made it very challenging for programmers to reach the performance potential of current systems. In addition, recent advances in numerical algorithms and software optimizations have tremendously increased the number of alternatives for solving a problem, which further complicates the software tuning process. These issues have led researchers to the idea of software systems that can automate the performance tuning process by running a large set of empirical evaluations to configure applications and libraries on the targeted computing platform.
The Fifth international Workshop on Automatic Performance Tuning (iWAPT2010) is an International workshop that provides opportunities for researchers and practitioners in all fields related to automatic performance tuning to exchange ideas and experiences on algorithms, libraries, and applications tuned for recent computing platforms. This workshop will consist of a few invited speaker presentations from leading researchers in academia or industry, and several presentations of peer-reviewed papers that report the latest results in auto-tuning research.
New topic:
Please also consider submitting 2-page position paper
on any of the topics mentioned below.
For example, a position paper could include your thoughts
on future auto-tuning features you consider important,
drawbacks of current application tuning techniques or tools,
or constructive suggestions how to improve state-of-the-art
application tuning methods.
These position papers will be reviewed and included in the proceedings.
Papers are solicited in following areas of automatic performance tuning including, but not limited to:
File format - PDF format
Regular Paper length - maximum 15 pages
Position Paper length - maximum 2 pages
Paper style - Springer LNCS format: Latex templates are available from here.
Submission site is closed.
All accepted papers (regular and position papers) will be included in the Proceeding of VECPAR'10.
Paper submission due: | May 5th 23:59, 2010 (EST) (2 weeks extension!) |
Paper acceptance notification: | May 14th, 2010 |
Final paper submission: | May 20th, 2010 |
Workshop: | June 22nd, 2010 |
