DescriptionThe 10th workshop on Many-Task Computing on Clouds,
Grids, and Supercomputers (MTAGS17) will provide both
the scientific and industrial communities a dedicated
forum for presenting new research, development, and
deployment efforts of algorithms, frameworks, and
systems for many-task computing (MTC), machine learning
and big data applications on large scale clusters,
clouds, grids, and supercomputers. The theme of the
workshop encompasses loosely-coupled applications driven
by big data. The applications are generally composed of
many tasks (e.g., millions to billions) to achieve some
larger application goal. This workshop will cover
challenges that can hamper efficiency and utilization in
running applications on extreme-scale systems, such as
local resource manager’s scalability and granularity,
data-aware scheduling, efficient utilization of
intra-node parallelism, parallel file-system contention
and scalability, data locality, I/O management,
reliability at scale, and application scalability. We
welcome paper submissions in theoretical, simulations,
and real systems topics with special consideration to
papers addressing the intersection of petascale/exascale
challenges with large-scale cloud computing and machine
learning. Papers will be peer-reviewed, and accepted
papers will be published in the workshop proceedings as
part of the ACM SIGHPC. The workshop will be held in
conjunction with SC17---The International Conference on
High Performance Computing, Networking, Storage and
Analysis---in Denver, Colorado, USA.
