CALL FOR PAPERS: FHPC 2015
by Greg Michaelson, April 7, 2015The FHPC workshop aims at bringing together researchers exploring uses of functional (or more generally, declarative or high-level) programming technology in application domains where high performance is essential. The aim of the meeting is to enable sharing of results, experiences, and novel ideas about how high-level, declarative specifications of computationally challenging problems can serve as maintainable and portable code that approaches (or even exceeds) the performance of machine-oriented imperative implementations.
CALL FOR PAPERS
FHPC 2015
The 4th ACM SIGPLAN Workshop on
Functional High-Performance Computing
Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, Canada
September 3, 2015
https://sites.google.com/site/fhpcworkshops/
Co-located with the International Conference on Functional Programming
(ICFP 2015)
Submission Deadline: Friday, 15 May, 2015 (anywhere on earth) ======================================================================
All aspects of performance critical programming and parallel programming are in-scope for the workshop, irrespective of hardware target. This includes both traditional large-scale scientific computing (HPC), as well as work targeting single node systems with SMPs, GPUs, FPGAs, or embedded processors. It is becoming apparent that radically new and well founded methodologies for programming such systems are required to address their inherent complexity and to reconcile execution performance with programming productivity.
Proceedings:
============
Accepted papers will be published by the ACM and will appear in the ACM Digital Library.
* Submissions due: Friday, 15 May, 2015 (anywhere on earth)
* Author notification: Friday, 26 June, 2015
* Final copy due: Sunday, 19 July, 2015
Submitted papers must be in portable document format (PDF), formatted according to the ACM SIGPLAN style guidelines (2 column, 9pt format).
See http://www.sigplan.org/authorInformation.htm for more information and style files. Typical papers are expected to be 8 pages (but up to four additional pages are permitted).
Contributions to FHPC 2015 should be submitted via Easychair, at the following URL:

The submission site is now open.
The FHPC workshops adhere to the ACM SIGPLAN policies regarding programme committee contributions and republication. Any paper submitted must adhere to ACM SIGPLAN's republication policy. PC member submissions are welcome, but will be reviewed to a higher standard.

Travel Support:
===============
Student attendees with accepted papers can apply for a SIGPLAN PAC grant to help cover travel expenses. PAC also offers other support, such as for child-care expenses during the meeting or for travel costs for companions of SIGPLAN members with physical disabilities, as well as for travel from locations outside of North America and Europe. For details on the PAC programme, see its web page (http://www.sigplan.org/PAC.htm).
