================================================================================


                                  LLVM-HPC2020:

          The Sixth Workshop on the LLVM Compiler Infrastructure in HPC

                    https://llvm-hpc-2020-workshop.github.io/


                                  November 16th

                               In conjunction with

                      SC20: The International Conference for

                     High Performance Computing, Networking,

                              Storage, and Analysis


================================================================================


The sixth annual LLVM in HPC Workshop, held in conjunction with SC20 and

in cooperation with TCHPC.


LLVM, winner of the 2012 ACM Software System Award, has become an

integral part of the software-development ecosystem for optimizing

compilers, dynamic-language execution engines, source-code analysis and

transformation tools, debuggers and linkers, and a whole host of

programming-language and toolchain-related components. Now heavily used

in both academia and industry, where it allows for rapid development of

production-quality tools, LLVM is increasingly used in work targeted at

high-performance computing. Research in, and implementation of, program

analysis, compilation, execution, and profiling has clearly benefited

from the availability of a high-quality, freely-available infrastructure

on which to build.


This sixth annual workshop will feature contributed papers and invited

talks focusing on recent developments, from both academia and industry,

that build on LLVM to advance the state of the art in high-performance

computing.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

   * Compiler design for highly-concurrent/parallel environments

   * Compilation techniques targeted at high-performance-computing codes

   * Programming-language implementation techniques enabling high

performance and high productivity

   * Embedding compilation and dynamic execution at scale

   * Tools for optimization, profiling, and feedback

   * Source code transformation and analysis

   * Gap analyses of open-source LLVM-based tools


Lightning Talks: The workshop will hold a lightning-talk session. Please

contribute to making this session both vibrant and informative! An

abstract and one-page summary are required for consideration.


Deadlines:


   * Paper submissions due: September 1, 2020 (AoE)

   * Notification to authors of acceptance: September 28, 2020

   * Camera-ready papers due: October 8, 2020

   * Workshop takes place: November 16, 2020

registration deadlines and other information associated with the parent

event.


Submissions:


Please submit papers using the SC20 submissions system

(https://submissions.supercomputing.org/
