Hi all,
I am organizing the symposium described below and I would like some =
input from the BSD community: what projects are currently active that =
deal with run-time adaptation in the OS? Who are the right people I =
should talk to?
Also, feel free to submit any interesting idea or article to us, we are =
open to submissions from outside of the academic world.
RACORE2011
Resource Adaptive Compilation and Runtime Environments
http://csa.science.uva.nl/racore2011
A mini-symposium held in conjunction with ParCo2011
Ghent University, Belgium
30 August - September 2011
RACORE2011 is a mini-symposium organized in conjunction with the
Parallel Computing conference ParCo2011, to be held in Ghent, Belgium
on 30 August - 2 September 2011.
Scope
-----
The computing landscape is diversifying. On most computing platforms,
the number and properties of available computing resources differ,
both over space and over time. Space heterogeneity arises in commodity
hardware from diverse core counts and combinations of CPUs with
companion processors like GPGPUs, streaming units as in IBM's Cell
processor or specialised hardware. Time heterogeneity arises from
frequency scaling, hardware faults, and dynamic addition or removal of
hardware components. Deploying software to such diverse targets
inevitably needs to factor in resource adaptability, especially at
run-time.
The RACORE symposium addresses dynamic adaptation of programs and
operating systems to changes in resource availability at run time,
either when applications are started or during their execution. We
foresee adaptation ranging from, but not limited to, changes to the
mapping of computation to resources, adjusting the level of exhibited
concurrency, reacting to energy constraints, possibly down to hardware
reconfiguration.
We solicit papers on all aspects of dynamic adaptation to resource
constraints. Topics include but are not limited to:
- adaptive mapping of applications to resources (e.g. the set of
applications or the set of resources evolves over time)
- dynamically adapting code / just-in-time compilation
- adaptation of program concurrency at run-time
- dynamic trade-offs for resource consumption (e.g. cores vs. memory)
- adaptation to comply with energy budgets
- dynamically evolving computation resources
- dynamically evolving input/output requirements or channel properties
Papers
------
Authors are invited to submit a full paper (up to 8 pages) or an
extended abstract (at least 2 pages) using the EasyChair submission
system. Details regarding the format and other author guidelines are
given on the submission page. Deadline for the submission is 15
June 2011.
