The 6th International Workshop on Modeling and Simulation of and by Parallel and Distributed Systems (MSPDS 2020)
CALL FOR PAPERS & PARTICIPATION
As part of the 18th International Conference on High Performance Computing & Simulation (HPCS 2020)
http://hpcs2020.cisedu.info/ or http://conf.cisedu.info/rp/hpcs20
10 - 14 December 2020
Barcelona, Spain (Virtual/Online event)
Paper Submission Deadline: 25 September 2020
Submissions could be for full papers, short papers, poster papers, or posters
SCOPE AND OBJECTIVES
Large parallel systems have become mainstream of both commercial and scientific computing. At the same time, high performance computing (HPC) has witnessed a revolution that has turned it into a jungle populated by very different types of parallel computing systems exploiting parallelism at different levels. They include multi- and many-core CPUs, GPUs, FPGAs, TPUs or heterogeneous systems joining together several of those types of devices. Shared-memory systems with hundreds of processors are commercially available, while a new generation of massively parallel systems have pushed the limits of scalability to unprecedented levels. Designing and understanding these systems requires new simulation and modeling approaches that can be effective at those scales. New software- and hardware-based simulation techniques have been developed to cope with those challenges.
The goal of this workshop is to promote the discussion and presentation of new research and development in the area of simulation and modeling of large parallel and distributed systems as well as simulation and modeling of applications that use HPC systems. We encourage original contributions from work on the following areas:
MSPDS Topics of interest include, but are not restricted to the following areas:
Simulation of Exascale Systems
Simulation of Interconnection Architectures and Technologies
Workload Characterization to help Simulation Studies
Parallel and Distributed Simulators
Hardware accelerators for simulating parallel systems
Bootstrapping: Using a current generation system to design the next generation
Modeling and simulation at the data centers level
Use of reconfigurable logic for simulation of parallel systems
Parallel and Distributed Discrete-Event Simulation
Machine learning for developing models of parallel systems
New and novel approaches to modeling and simulation of large and complex systems
Modeling techniques, including reuse of models, modeling languages, agent-based M&S, and spatially explicit M&S
M&S to manage and/or optimize operational systems and methodological challenges arising from these applications such as online simulation, symbiotic simulation, dynamic data-driven, real-time and embedded simulation, and emulation of real systems.
Simulation of breaking technologies (e.g. quantum computing, wireless photonics, etc)
Simulation and modeling of applications that use HPC systems
Modeling of HPC systems and components
Modeling in various domains of knowledge using HPC and parallel systems and algorithms, including (but not limited to) parallel models of complex systems, multiscale models, multi-agent systems, P-systems models, cellular automata and stencil computation, neuromorphic models, etc.
Modeling and Evaluation Methods and Studies

Submit a PDF copy of your full manuscript to the Workshop's paper submission site at https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=mspds2020. Acknowledgement will be sent within 48 hours of submission.
Conference Policies
Only PDF files will be accepted, uploaded to the submission link above. Each paper will receive a minimum of three reviews. Papers will be selected based on their originality, relevance, significance, technical clarity and soundness, presentation, language, and references. Submission implies the willingness of at least one of the authors to register and present the paper, if accepted. At least one of the authors of each accepted paper will have to register and attend (virtually) the HPCS 2020 conference to present the paper at the Symposium as scheduled. By submitting the paper to the HPCS conference, all authors agree to abide by all HPCS conference paper submission, publication and presentation policies as well as following ethical and professional codes of conduct, including those of the professional co-sponsoring organizations. For more information, please refer to the Authors Info and Registration Info pages.
Proceedings
Accepted papers will be published in the Conference proceedings. Instructions for final manuscript format and requirements will be posted on the HPCS 2020 Conference web site. It is our intent to have the proceedings formally published in hard and soft copies and be available at the time of the conference. The proceedings is projected to be included in the IEEE or ACM Digital Library and indexed in all major indexing services accordingly.
SPECIAL ISSUE
Best papers related with the topics of the Special Collection on Parallel Computing in Evolutionary Bioinformatics, https://journals.sagepub.com/page/evb/collections/special-collections/parallel-computing-in-evolutionary-bioinformatics are to be selected for their possible publication in the journal "Evolutionary Bioinformatics" (1.018 JCR impact factor in 2019).
Plans are underway to have the best papers related with the rest of topics, in extended version, selected for possible publication in a reputable journal as special issue. Additional detailed information will soon be announced and will be made available on the conference website.
If you have any questions about paper submission or the Workshop, please contact the Workshop's organizers.
