The goal of the Seventh International Workshop on Automatic Performance Tuning (iWAPT2012) is to bring together researchers who are investigating automated techniques for constructing and/or adapting algorithms and software for high-performance on modern complex machine architectures.
This year, are soliciting two kinds of contributions: regular papers and previously published papers. Only regular papers will become a part of the formal proceedings, though all papers will be distributed to workshop attendees. The goal of this format is to encourage broad participation in the workshop, both for new work and prior but current work. All accepted papers will be assigned a speaking slot in the workshop's agenda.
Regular papers present new, previously unpublished work. Such papers will undergo the usual peer-review, judged on the criteria of novelty, technical soundness, and writing quality. If accepted, they become part of the official VECPAR proceedings. They will also be included in the post-conference proceedings of VECPAR 2012, which Springer will publish in the Lecture Notes in Computer Science series. Publication is subject to confirmation by the iWAPT program committee that the authors have revised the paper per reviewer comments as needed. Further information about the process will be sent to authors with the notice of acceptance.
Prior papers are those that have already been published but still reflect the authors' current interests. They may also be new surveys of the authors' prior work. Importantly, such papers will be distributed locally to attendees but will not be included in the formal published proceedings. Review of such papers will be lighter, with acceptance determined by availability of time in the program, relevance, and likely significance to workshop attendees.
To be announced.
Please follow the guidelines for VECPAR 2012, which is in the LNCS format. Regular papers must not exceed 15 pages for the main text, with any number of additional pages for references. (That is, references do not count against the 15 page limit.) Prior papers may be submitted in the format of the original publication.
Also, please indicate how you wish your paper to be considered as a subtitle of your submission. For prior papers, also indicate where the paper appeared previously.
Submission must be made through the web form. See: http://iwapt.org/2012/submit
