Eight Workshop on Accelerator Programming using Directives (WACCPD 2021)
(in conjunction with SC21)
November 14, 2021 - https://www.waccpd.org
========================================================================
Call for Participation
-----------------------
Architectures are evolving rapidly as we speak. In today’s systems, a single compute node is often equipped with multiple accelerators. Exploiting the maximum available parallelism out of such systems necessitates refactoring applications and using a programming approach that can make effective use of accelerators. Historically, the favored portable approaches, and the sole focus of our earlier workshops, were OpenMP offloading and OpenACC. Today, we understand there are other options and have extended the workshop to include the use of standard Fortran/C++, Sycl, DPC++, HIP, Kokkos, and Raja among several others that can provide scalable as well as portable solutions without compromising on performance.
This workshop will highlight the improvements over the state-of-art through accepted papers and prompt discussion through keynotes and panels. The workshop aims to showcase all aspects of accelerator programming for heterogeneous systems such as innovative high-level language or library approaches, lessons learned while using directives or other portable approaches to migrate scientific legacy code to modern systems, and compilation and runtime scheduling techniques.
WACCPD2021 will be virtual. In the past seven years of this workshop, WACCPD has been one of the major forums at SC to bring together programming model users, developers, and the tools community to share knowledge and experiences to tackle emerging complex parallel computing systems.
Topics of interest for workshop submissions include (but are not limited to)
- Application developers' experiences porting scientific applications to heterogeneous
systems
- Critical assessment of the benefits and limitations of minimal-maintenance portable
programming approaches
- Compiler and runtime support for current and emerging architectures
- Prototypes of base language parallelism constructs for accelerators
- Design and development of directives created for complex parallel patterns
- Abstract handling of complex/heterogeneous memory hierarchies
- Extensions to and shortcomings of current directives for heterogeneous systems
- Compare and contrast high-level and lower-level abstractions with respect to performance,
tuning, programmer productivity and overall analysis
- Modeling, verification and performance analysis tools
- Auto-tuning and optimization strategies
- Using non-traditional HPC languages such as Julia or Python on heterogeneous systems
- Parallel computing using hybrid programming paradigms, i.e. MPI+X
- Asynchronous execution and scheduling (task-based approaches)
- Scientific library interoperability with programming approaches for accelerators
- Power/energy studies and solutions targeting accelerators or heterogeneous systems
Workshop Important Deadlines
- Paper Submission Deadline: August 27, 2021 AOE
- Author Notification: October 4, 2021 AOE
- Workshop Ready Deadline: October 18, 2021 AOE
- Camera Ready Deadline: December 3, 2021 AOE (Note: This deadline is after your presentation)
Best Paper Award
The Best Paper Award will be selected on the basis of explicit recommendations of the
reviewers and their scoring towards the paper's originality and quality. In order to
be considered for the Best Paper Award, the authors must submit an Artifact Description
appendix according to the reproducibility initiative of the SC21 technical papers.
Paper Proceedings
WACCPD papers will be peer-reviewed and selected for presentation at the workshop. The paper presented will be published as post-proceedings in Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) with Springer. The camera-ready version will be due after the workshop. The authors are expected to use this additional time for further refining their manuscript based on the
feedback received from the workshop along with reviews from the peer-review process.
For publication in LNCS, the Springer guidelines must be followed:
Authors should consult Springer's authors' guidelines and use their proceedings templates,
either for LaTeX or for Word, for the preparation of their papers. Springer encourages
authors to include their ORCIDs in their papers. In addition, the corresponding author of
each paper, acting on behalf of all of the authors of that paper, must complete and sign a
Consent-to-Publish form. The corresponding author signing the copyright form should match
the corresponding author marked on the paper. Once the files have been sent to Springer,
changes relating to the authorship of the papers cannot be made.
Authors can use the Springer LNCS template provided on Overleaf if they want to prepare
their submission using that service.

Hello,
As in years past Argonne will have a booth at this year’s virtual Grace Hopper Celebration (https://ghc.anitab.org/) and we are trying to gauge Argonne staff and student interest in attending the conference this year. Please fill out this form by end of day August 10th if you are interested or plan to attend - https://forms.office.com/g/q3L9L4CnDA. Completing the form does not obligate you to attend the conference.
If you are curious about what the experience of attending this conference is like please reach out to either Paul Hovland (hovland(a)mcs.anl.gov<mailto:[email protected]>) or me (ramprakash(a)anl.gov<mailto:[email protected]>) and we will be happy to talk to you.
