All:

 

We are pleased to announce the Call for Papers for the ISC19 IXPUG Workshop: "Using FPGAs to Accelerate HPC & Data Analytics on Intel-Based Systems"

 

The workshop will be held at ISC, in Frankfurt, Germany, on Thursday, 20 June, 2019.

 

Event Description: The workshop will bring together software developers, scientists, academia, and industry luminaries to share learnings around the integration and use of FPGA devices in HPC, Data Analytics, and Artificial Intelligence (Machine Learning and Deep Learning) workloads in Intel-based HPC systems. The workshop will cover strategies for migrating workloads onto FPGAs, performance comparisons, aspects of productivity, performance portability, and scalability.

 

Objectives of the workshop:

1) Discuss using FPGAs on Intel-based systems and scientific achievements;

2) Share FPGA-related trends and challenges; and

3) Foster collaborations and strengthen the community of FPGA enthusiasts using Intel-based HPC systems.

 

Call for Papers: The submission process will close on April 14, 2019 AoE.

 

All submitters should provide content that represents a FULL PAPER via the IXPUG EasyChair website. All accepted technical papers will be given roughly 10-15 minutes in length to present a "Lightning Talk". An interactive Panel Session (~30 minutes) with representatives from the global developer community, tool chain developers, as well as standardization bodies (OpenMP, OpenCL, etc.). Notifications will be sent to submitters by May 21, 2019 AoE. Please be sure to focus your content on the approach that was taken, obstacles encountered, solutions developed, performance results and future work aspirations.
