WELCOME
The Computing Center of the Russian Academy of Sciences (Academgorodok, Novosibirsk), Novosibirsk State University and Novosibirsk State Technical University are jointly organizing the Sixth International Conference on PARALLEL COMPUTING TECHNOLOGIES (PaCT-2001).
The conference will be held in Novosibirsk, September 3–7, 2001. Five previous conferences have been held in Novosibirsk (1991), Obninsk (1993), St.-Petersburg (1995), Yaroslavl (1997) and St.-Petersburg (1999).
The aim of PaCT-2001 is to give an overview of new developments, applications, and trends in parallel computing technologies. We sincerely hope this conference will help to deepen our understanding of parallel computing technologies by providing a forum for an exchange of views between scientists and specialists from over the world.
We welcome your active participation.
MAIN TOPICS
* All aspects of the applications of parallel computer systems
* General methods and tools for parallel solution of big size problems
* Languages, environment and software tools supporting parallel processing
* Fine grained computations: models, languages, algorithms and technologies
* Operating systems, scheduling, mapping, load balancing
* General architecture concepts, enabling technologies
* Performance measurement and analysis
* Teaching parallel processing
CALL FOR PAPERS
Original manuscripts are solicited for the Conference. The full paper (not exceeding 15 pages) or extended abstract (about 5–7 pages) should be submitted to the conference address in Novosibirsk (see below) by January 20, 2001. Only electronic submission of manuscripts is accepted.
The first page should include (but not be limited to) the following information: title, the author's full names, affiliation, addresses, telephone and fax numbers, e-mail address. The name of contact author should be underlined.
To gain the better understanding of your abstract, we also request that the following information must be included: short review of related papers, formulation of the problem, objectives, description of results, main ideas, and the list of references.
All papers will be internationally reviewed. Authors will be notified of acceptance by March 15, 2001. We will require camera-ready copy of the accepted paper by May 20, 2001. We will be unable to include in the Proceedings papers that arrive after this deadline.
The organizers expect that the authors of selected papers will present their paper in Novosibirsk.
TECHNICAL DETAILS
The paper (extended abstract) should be prepared in plain ASCII, or standard LaTeX or Microsoft Word. We plan to publish the Proceedings of the conference as a volume of LNCS and ask you to prepare your paper in LNCS format (see URL www.springer.de/comp/lncs/authors.html).
PROCEEDINGS
The Conference Proceedings is planned to be published as the volume of Springer Verlag LNCS (Lecture Notes in Computer Science) series and distributed at the Conference.
LANGUAGE
The official language of the Conference is English.
SOCIAL ACTIVITIES
Cultural program is planned for the participants and accompanying persons.
SPECIAL SESSIONS
We plan to organize several special sessions.
1. Applications of the fine-grain computations: moderator Prof. G. Mauri (Milano-Bicocca), e-mail: mauri@disco.unimib.it
Papers on fine-grain computations, cellular automata, computer simulation of discrete dynamical systems, discrete solution of differential equations are accepted for this special session.
2. Parallel numerical algorithms and large scale mathematical modeling: moderator Prof. V.Il'in (Novosibirsk), e-mail: ilin@comcen.nsk.su
Scalable parallel numerical algorithms, digital processing, numerical solution of partial differential equations, parallel algorithms of linear algebra are accepted for this special session.
3. History of Parallel Computing. Moderator Prof. Ya.Fet, e-mail: fet@ssd.sscc.ru
4. The papers devoted to the history of parallel computing, famous projects are accepted.
Interested colleagues are invited to organize special sessions. The application to organize such a session should be sent to the address of Chairman not later than on February 5, 2001.
DEMO and TUTORIALS
Demo* of parallel system software, tools and applications is also planned. Demonstration might accompany the presentation of the accepted papers. University's teams and companies are invited to demonstrate their new software tools. The application should be sent to the Chairman by March 15, 2001.
We plan to organize one-day tutorials (before the conference days) devoted to the methods of parallel implementation of big size numerical models and cluster computing.
