The 33rd IEEE International Symposium on Computer Architecture and HighPerformance Computing (SBAC-PAD 2021) is a remote event that will take placefrom October 26th to 29th of 2021.
* General Chairs Renato Ferreira (Federal University of Minas Gerais, Brazil) George Teodoro (Federal University of Minas Gerais, Brazil) Wagner Meira Jr. (Federal University of Minas Gerais, Brazil)
SBAC-PAD is a traditional conference, ranked B in CORE2020 and authors areinvited to submit original manuscripts on a wide range of computerarchitectures and high performance and distributed computing areas. Topics ofinterest include (but are not limited to):
- Application-specific systems; - Architecture and programming support for emerging domains: (Big Data, Deep Learning, Machine learning, Cognitive Systems); - Benchmarking, performance measurements, and analysis; - Cloud, cluster, and edge/fog computing systems; - Embedded and pervasive systems; - GPUs, FPGAs and accelerator architectures; - Languages, compilers, and tools for parallel and distributed programming; - Modeling and simulation methodology; - Operating systems and virtualization; - Parallel and distributed systems, algorithms, and applications; - Power and energy-efficient systems; - Processor, cache, memory, storage, and network architecture; - Real-world applications and case studies; - Reconfigurable, resilient and fault-tolerant systems;
* Program Chairs Cristiana Bentes (State University of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil) & Olivier Beaumont (INRIA, University of Bordeaux, France)
The conference this year will be accepting papers in 5 different tracks withthe corresponding track chairs as follows:
1 - Computer Architecture José Nelson Amaral (University of Alberta, Canada)
2 - Networking and Distributed Systems Cristina Boeres (Federal Fluminense University, Brazil)
3 - Parallel Applications and Algorithms Hatem Ltaief (Extreme Computing Research Center, KAUST, Saudi Arabia)
4 - Performance Evaluation Anne-Cecile Orgerie (CNRS, France)
5 - System Software Judith Hill (Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, USA)
Authors Guidelines
Paper submissions must be in English, 10 pages maximum, following the IEEEconference formatting guidelines. Papers that do not meet these requirementsmight be rejected without a review. Only contributions that are not submittedelsewhere or currently under review will be considered. To be published in theconference proceedings and to be eligible for publication at the IEEE Xplore,one of the authors must register at the full rate and present his/her work.
This year SBAC-PAD submissions will undergo a double-blind review process, where reviewers do not know the identity of the authors, and vice-versa. Therefore, authors should "blind" their submission adopting the following guidelines:
1. The authors cannot include their names, affiliations, funding sources, or acknowledgments in any part of the paper.
2. Self-references that are relevant to the work are allowed, but they should not appear in the text on the first person. Instead they should be referenced in the third person, like "Smith et al. found that... [4].".
3. For the authors' unpublished work, they need to use anonymous citations.
Awards will be given to the best paper in each track of the conference. Theprogram committee will select the top papers as finalists, and one paper willbe selected during the conference as the winner and will be recognized as suchat the conference closing ceremony. Selected papers will also by invited tosubmit an extended version to a special issue of the Journal of Parallel andDistributed Computing.
