=====================================================



HIGHLIGHTS
-----------

* Foster collaboration between HPC community and AI community
* Applying HPC techniques for learning problems
* Identifying HPC challenges from learning and inference
* Explore a critical emerging area with strong academia and industry interest
* Great opportunity for researchers worldwide for collaborating with Chinese Academia and Industry


CALL FOR PAPERS
---------------

This workshop is one of the major meetings for bringing together researchers in High Performance Computing and Artificial Intelligence to discuss state-of-the-art algorithms, identify critical applications that benefit from parallelization, prospect research areas that require most convergence and assess the impact on broader technical landscape. This is also a great opportunity for researchers worldwide for collaborating with Chinese Academia and Industry.

Authors are invited to submit manuscripts of original unpublished research that demonstrate a strong interplay between parallel/distributed computing techniques and learning/inference applications, such as algorithm design and libraries/framework development on multicore/ manycore architectures, GPUs, clusters, supercomputers, cloud computing platforms that target applications including but not limited to:

Learning and inference using large scale Bayesian Networks
Large scale inference algorithms using parallel TPIC models, clustering and SVM etc.
Parallel natural language processing (NLP).
Semantic inference for disambiguation of content on web or social media
Discovering and searching for patterns in audio or video content
On-line analytics for streaming text and multimedia content
Comparison of various HPC infrastructures for learning
Large scale learning applications in search engine and social networks
Distributed machine learning tools (e.g., Mahout and IBM parallel tool)
Real-time solutions for learning algorithms on parallel platforms


IMPORTANT DATE
---------------

Workshop Paper Due January 18, 2012
Author Notification February 1, 2012
Camera-ready Paper Due February 21, 2012


PAPER GUIDELINES
----------------

Submitted manuscripts may not exceed 10 single-spaced double-column pages using 10-point size font on 8.5x11 inch pages (IEEE conference style), including figures, tables, and references. More format requirements will be posted on the IPDPS web page (www.ipdps.org) shortly after the author notification Authors can purchase up to 2 additional pages for camera-ready papers after acceptance.
