What the Meeting is About
This workshop aims at taking an integrated view of opportunities and
constraints on the road to ever higher performance and productivity of
computing systems. Distinguished researchers will be invited to
exchange their perspectives on different areas that can contribute to
scalable computing, including:
- Significant Applications Requiring Scalable Computing
- Computer Architecture
- Models for Design, Analysis, and Implementation of Scalable Algorithms
- Compilers
- Adaptive Software
- Performance and Productivity Measurement
Format: The workshop will feature about 15 long talks (50 minute
presentation + 10 minute discussion), a few short talks (20 mintue
presentation + 10 minute discussion) and a three panel sessions aimed
at discussing issues proposed (in advance) by the participants, at
summarizing the main ideas emerged throughout the workshop, and at
identifying promising avenues for future work.
Participation of other interested researchers, particularly graduate
students and junior researchers, is welcome. An expression of
interest can be sent to bilardi@dei.unipd.it, including a brief CV
and, if proposing a short talk, title and abstract.
Financial support for graduate students and young researchers will be provided
if possible.

Location
The meeting will be held in the small medieval
hilltop town of Bertinoro. This town is in
Emilia Romagna about 50km east of Bologna at an elevation of about
230m. Here is a map
putting it in context. It is easily reached by train and taxi from Bologna and is
close to many splendid Italian locations such as Ravenna,
a treasure trove of byzantine art and history, and
the Republic
of San Marino (all within 35km) as well as some less well-known
locations like the thermal springs of Fratta
Terme and the castle and monastic gardens of Monte
Maggio. Bertinoro can also be a base for visiting some of
the better-known Italian locations such as Padua, Ferrara, Vicenza,
Venice, Florence and Siena.
Bertinoro itself is picturesque, with many
narrow streets and walkways winding around the central peak. The
meeting will be held in a redoubtable ex-Episcopal
fortress that has been converted by the University of Bologna into
a modern conference center with computing facilities and Internet access.
From the fortress you can enjoy a beautiful
the vista
that stretches from the Tuscan Apennines to the Adriatic coast.
