POST PROCEEDINGS SPECIAL ISSUE:
===============================
Selected submissions will be invited for a special issue of
"Parallel Processing Letters" (ISSN 0129-6264) after the workshop.

OVERVIEW:
Stencil computations are an important class of codes used in a variety
of application domains ranging from image and video processing to
simulation and computational science applied in several areas of
natural science. With consumer devices and high-end systems becoming
increasingly powerful, stencil computations are playing an
increasingly important role in research and in applications
alike. Today, real-world stencil codes are often hand-tuned which
requires a huge amount of engineering effort given the variety of
stencil codes in use. Therefore, simplifying the task of constructing
stencil codes that deliver high performance has become an important
topic in research.

HiStencils is a workshop focusing on stencil computations from
embedded environments to exascale computing and advanced software
technology needed to simplify the construction of stencils codes
delivering high performance. HiStencils is intended to bring together
researchers, students and practitioners dealing with, among others,
performance optimization, code generation and software technology for
stencil computations. We encourage submissions describing
preliminary results, new ideas, position papers, experience reports,
and available tools, with an aim to stimulate discussions,
collaborations, and advances in the field.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
- performance optimization of stencil computations
- auto-tuning and machine learning for stencil codes
- software technology for stencil computations
- stencil code generation for GPUs, accelerators and distributed systems
- stencil applications in embedded systems
- hardware/high-level synthesis for stencil codes
- harnessing stencil computations for exascale performance
- static analysis and verification of stencil codes
- theoretical aspects of stencil computations
- multigrid stencil methods
- tool demonstration


SUBMISSION:

Submissions should not exceed 8 pages (recommended 6 pages) formatted
as per ACM proceedings format. Please use the "tighter alternate
style" (option 2) available from
http://www.acm.org/sigs/publications/proceedings-templates

Submissions should be in PDF format and printable on US Letter or A4
sized paper. Proceedings will be published online and distributed to
the participants.  Please send your submission by the deadline to
histencils@exastencils.org.

HiStencils does not require copyright assignment, i.e., authors are
free to republish their work elsewhere. (Please note that other
venues may accept unpublished work only; being accepted for
HiStencils may be regarded as being "published".)
