November 14-16, 2019, Denver, Colorado, USA
Introduction
Benchmarking, measuring, and optimizing are fundamental activities in human being’s lives. Starting as nine BPOE Workshop series and SDBA Workshop in conjunction with ASPLOS, VLDB, and ICS, this symposium (Bench 19) is organized by International Open Benchmarking Council (BenchCouncil), and the main theme is benchmarking, measuring, and optimizing Big Data or AI in HPC, Datacenter, IoT, and Edge Computing.
Bench 19 provides a high-quality, single-track forum for presenting results and discussing ideas that further the knowledge and understanding of the benchmark community as a whole. Also, we will invite speakers from China, US, Europe and Japan on HPC AI topics. Bench 19 has three special events: HPC AI benchmark suite and first HPC AI benchmarking report, Big Data and AI challenges, and BenchCouncil awards.
Call for papers
We solicit papers describing original and previously unpublished research. Specific topics of interest include, but are not limited to the following.
**Benchmark, measurement, and optimization of:
**Benchmark specifications and open-source implementation reports of:
** Methodologies, abstractions, metrics, algorithms, and tools in benchmark, measurement, and optimization for:
** Benchmark-driven domain-specific co-design of:
** Testbed methodologies and systems of:
** Workload characterization of:
-Big Data
-AI
-HPC
-Machine learning in HPC
-Big scientific data
-Datacenter
-Cloud

Paper Submission:
Papers must be submitted in PDF. Short papers (no more than 4 pages in standard two-column IEEE conference format or 6 pages in LNCS format, not including references) are encouraged, and the authors can extend their short paper to 12 pages in LNCS format, not including references, in the final publication. If a full paper is submitted, the page limit is 8 pages in standard two-column IEEE conference format or 12 pages in LNCS format, not including references. The submissions will be judged based on the merit of the ideas rather than the length. After the conference, revised papers will be published by Springer (Pending).
