==========================================================
     5th International Workshop on Performance Modeling, 
               Benchmarking and Simulation of 
              High Performance Computer Systems 
                         (PMBS14) 


  held as part of SC14, New Orleans, LA, November 2014


               http://www.pmbsworkshop.org 
==========================================================




The PMBS14 workshop is concerned with the comparison of 
high-performance computing systems through performance modeling, 
benchmarking or through the use of tools such as simulators.


We are particularly interested in research which reports the 
ability to measure and make tradeoffs in software/hardware 
co-design to improve sustained application performance. We are 
also keen to capture the assessment of future systems, for 
example through work that ensures continued application 
scalability through peta- and exa-scale systems.


The aim of this workshop is to bring together researchers, from 
industry and academia, concerned with the qualitative and 
quantitative evaluation and modeling of high-performance 
computing systems. Authors are invited to submit novel research 
in all areas of performance modeling, benchmarking and 
simulation, and we welcome research that brings together current
theory and practice. We recognize that the coverage of the term 
'performance' has broadened to include power consumption and 
reliability, and that performance modeling is practiced through 
analytical methods and approaches based on software tools and 
simulators.


=== Topics of Interest ===


We encourage submissions in the following areas:


- Performance modeling, analysis, and prediction of applications
   and high-performance computing systems
- Novel techniques and tools for performance evaluation and 
   prediction
- Advanced simulation techniques and tools
- Micro-benchmarking, application benchmarking and tracing
- Performance-driven code optimization and scalability analysis
- Verification and validation of performance models
- Benchmarking and performance analysis of novel hardware
- Performance concerns in software/hardware co-design
- Tuning and auto-tuning of HPC applications and algorithms
- Benchmark suites
- Performance visualisation
- Real-world case studies
- Studies of novel hardware such as Intel Xeon Phi co-processor 
   technology, NVIDIA Kepler GPUs and AMD Fusion APU


Work which examines similar topics will also be considered.


=== Submission Guidelines ===


Authors are invited to submit short papers describing initial 
research or early first-of-a-kind results. Papers should not 
exceed 10 pages of single column text using single spaced fonts 
on pages of 8.5 x 11 inches (this limit includes all figures, 
content etc but does not include references). All papers should 
be formatted to use the LNCS manuscript and workshop/conference 
guidelines available at:
http://www.springer.com/computer/lncs?SGWID=0-164-12-73062-0


All accepted papers (subject to post-review revisions) will be 
published in the PMBS Workshop Proceedings by LNCS.


Authors of selected papers will also be invited to submit revised 
manuscripts for inclusion in special issues of two high 
performance computing journals (pending)


Papers should be submitted using EasyChair at:
