 Recent Advances in Message Passing Interface. 
 20th European MPI Users' Group Meeting (EuroMPI 2013)  

 EuroMPI 2013 is being held in cooperation with SIGHPC 

 Madrid, Spain, September 15-18, 2013 

 www.eurompi2013.org

 BACKGROUND AND TOPICS 
 ------------------------------- 

 EuroMPI is the preeminent meeting for users, developers and
 researchers to interact and discuss new developments and applications
 of message-passing parallel computing, in particular in and related
 to the Message Passing Interface (MPI). The annual meeting has a
 long, rich tradition, and the 20th European MPI Users' Group Meeting
 will again be a lively forum for discussion of everything related to
 usage and implementation of MPI and other parallel programming
 interfaces. Traditionally, the meeting has focused on the efficient
 implementation of aspects of MPI, typically on high-performance
 computing platforms, benchmarking and tools for MPI, short-comings
 and extensions of MPI, parallel I/O and fault tolerance, as well as
 parallel applications using MPI. The meeting is open towards other
 topics, in particular application experience and alternative
 interfaces for high-performance heterogeneous, hybrid, distributed
 memory systems.

 Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: 

 - MPI implementation issues and improvements 
 - Extensions to and shortcomings of MPI 
 - Tools and environments for MPI 
 - Hybrid and heterogeneous programming with MPI and other interfaces 
 - Relation of MPI to alternative interfaces for hybrid/heterogeneous
   distributed memory systems  
 - Interaction between message-passing software and hardware, in
   particular new high performance architectures  
 - Fault tolerance in message-passing implementations and systems 
 - Performance evaluation for MPI and MPI based applications- 
 - Automatic performance tuning of MPI applications and implementations 
 - Verification of message passing applications and protocols 
 - Applications using message-passing, in particular in Computational
   Science and Scientific Computing  
 - Non-standard message-passing applications 
 - Parallel algorithms in the message-passing paradigm 
 - Algorithms using the message-passing paradigm 

 The meeting will feature contributed talks on the selected,
 peer-reviewed papers, invited expert talks covering upcoming and
 future issues, a vendor session where selected vendors will present
 their new developments in hybrid and heterogeneous cluster and
 high-performance architectures, a poster session, and a tutorial day.

 The scientific part of the conference is organized in cooperation
 with ACM SIGHPC. Conference proceedings will be published in the ACM
 Digital Library, which includes short and long papers, workshop
 papers, and posters. Selected high quality papers will be published
 in an international journals. There will also be a reward for the
 overall best paper from the academic conference.

 WORKSHOPS
 ------------------------------- 

 IMUDI SPECIAL SESSION ON IMPROVING MPI USER AND DEVELOPER INTERACTION

 The IMUDI special session, to be held as a full-day meeting at the
 EuroMPI 2013 conference in Madrid, Spain, focuses on bringing
 together the MPI end-user and MPI implementor communities through
 discussions on MPI usage experiences, techniques, and
 optimizations. This meeting will focus on evaluating the MPI standard
 from the perspective of the MPI end-user (application and library
 developers) and address concerns and insights of MPI implementors and
 vendors. Unlike workshops associated with other conferences, the
 IMUDI session is still considered to be a part of the Euro MPI
 conference. Submissions will be reviewed separately to facilitate
 bringing together research publications falling into these "special
 focus" areas.

 ENERGY-EFFICIENT HIGH PERFORMANCE COMPUTING & COMMUNICATION WORKSHOP (E2HPC2) 2013

 The first Energy-Efficient High Performance Computing & Communication
 workshop will be co-located with EuroMPI 2013 in
 Madrid. Energy-awareness is now a main topic for HPC systems. The
 goal of this workshop is to discuss latest researches on the impact
 and possibles leverages of communications for such systems. E2HPC2
 solicits original and non-published or under-review articles on the
 field of energy-aware communication in HPC environment. This workshop
 is co-located with EuroMPI as MPI is the main communication interface
 in those environments.

 PBIO 2013: INTERNATIONAL WORKSHOP ON PARALLELISM IN BIOINFORMATICS

 In Bioinformatics, we can find a variety of problems which are
 affected by huge processing times and memory consumption, due to the
 large size of biological data sets and the inherent complexity of
 biological problems. In fact, Bioinformatics is one of the most
 exciting research areas in which Parallelism finds
 application. Successful examples are mpiBLAST or ClustalW-MPI, among
 many others. In conclusion, Bioinformatics allows and encourages the
 application of many different parallelism-based technologies. The
 focus of this workshop is on MPI-based approaches, but we welcome any
 technique based on: multicore and cluster computing, supercomputing,
 grid computing, cloud computing, hardware accelerators as GPUs,
 FPGAs, or Cell processors, etc.

 SUBMISSION INFORMATION 
 ------------------------------- 

 Contributors are invited to submit a full paper as a PDF document not
 exceeding 6 pages in English. The title page should contain an
 abstract of at most 100 words and five specific, topical
 keywords. The paper must be formatted according to double-column ACM
 ICPS proceedings style. The usage of LaTeX for preparation of the
 contribution as well as the submission in camera ready format is
 strongly recommended. Style files can be found at
 http://www.acm.org/publications/icps-instructions/.

 New work that is not yet mature for a full paper, short observations,
 and similar brief announcements are invited for the poster
 session. Contributions to the poster session should be submitted in
 the form of a two page abstract.

 All contributions will be fully peer reviewed by the program
 committee. Papers shall be submitted electronically via Easychair,
 see http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=eurompi2013.
