* Call for Papers: Language, Compiler, and Architecture Support for GPGPU
http://www.cse.iitk.ac.in/users/lca-gpgpu-I/
Submitted by Mainak Chaudhuri <[log in to unmask]>

Workshop on Language, Compiler, and Architecture Support for GPGPU
Held in conjunction with HPCA 2010
Bangalore, January 2010

Prolog
------

GPUs are evolving as massively threaded vector machines. While the primary 
design goal of the GPUs is efficient processing of the graphics stack, the 
massive parallelism available in these chips has lately opened up the 
possibility of carrying out general purpose computing on them. This computing 
paradigm is called GPGPU. Although manually mapping regular data parallel 
applications on GPUs has been explored quite extensively, making truly general 
purpose computing feasible on GPUs requires answering a number of important 
questions. This half-day workshop aims at bringing together the researchers 
and practitioners in this rapidly evolving area with a goal of addressing 
issues related to programming languages, programming models, compiler 
optimizations, and architecture to make GPGPU a conducive execution 
environment for regular as well as irregular applications. The topics of 
interest include, but are not limited to, the following.

+ New GPU architecture features to enhance GPGPU 
+ Memory system innovations to enhance GPGPU 
+ Implications of GPGPU on memory consistency models 
+ Architecture support for single-chip CPU-GPU integration 
+ Programming models and language support for GPGPU 
+ Compiler Optimization for GPGPU 
+ Debugging/Performance visualization tools for GPGPU 
+ Efficient synchronization support for GPGPU 
+ Performance evaluation of irregular applications on GPUs 
+ Energy-efficiency studies on GPGPU 
+ GPGPU benchmarks 

Call for papers
---------------

The workshop invites submissions featuring unpublished results. The submissions
must not exceed ten pages in two-column single-spaced ten-point font IEEE 
transaction style. The workshop will feature one invited keynote and a number 
of contributed papers selected from the submissions. All the papers and 
presentations will be made available online. However, publication in this 
workshop does not preclude later publication in regular conferences and 
journals.
