Workshop: DISCS-2014: International Workshop on Data Intensive Scalable Computing Systems
Date: Sunday, November 16, 2014, 09:00 AM - 05:30 PM
Room: 298-99
Description: Existing high performance computing (HPC) systems are designed primarily for workloads requiring high rates of computation. However, the widening performance gap between processors and storage, and trends toward higher data intensity in scientific and engineering applications, suggest there is a need to rethink HPC system architectures, programming models, runtime systems, and tools with a focus on data intensive computing. The 2014 International Workshop on Data Intensive Scalable Computing Systems (DISCS) builds on the momentum generated by its two predecessor workshops, providing a forum for researchers interested in HPC and data intensive computing to exchange ideas and discuss approaches for addressing Big Data challenges. The workshop includes a keynote address and presentation of peer-reviewed research papers, with ample opportunity for informal discussion throughout the day.
