Call for papers:

Artificial intelligence (AI) and Machine learning (ML) workloads are an increasingly larger share of the compute workloads in High-Performance Computing (HPC) centers and commercial cloud systems. The compute requirements of AI have led to a corresponding increase in the energy usage and carbon footprint associated with the training and deployment of these models. The combined effect has highlighted the need for approaches to optimized resource usage, allocations and deployment of new AI frameworks. Addressing this challenge requires a deeper understanding of HPC/cloud/datacenter operations in order to develop improved scheduling policies, identify inefficiencies in resource utilization, lower energy/power consumption and develop efficient approaches to datacenter management. Simultaneously, there is a growing interest in HPC/Cloud environments in minimizing the accompanying effects on climate change. This workshop will focus on the development and deployment of AI/ML approaches to datacenter operations, power/energy modeling, scheduling, optimization and monitoring tools. In addition to these topics, this workshop solicits papers that address any of the challenges in enabling large-scale AI in HPC/Cloud environments, including:

•    Carbon/Energy reduction in AI/ML
•    Instrumentation for measurement of the climate impact of AI
•    Operational insights from deploying and scaling AI/ML workloads in shared systems
•    Parallelization strategies for AI training
•    Optimization strategies including algorithmic and hardware innovations for faster training and inference 
•    Scheduling strategies for AI and traditional HPC workloads in large scale environments

Submission deadlines: 

  • Paper submission deadline - February 14, 2023
  • Author notification - March 1, 2023
  • Camera ready deadline - March 7, 2023

Submission Details: Submissions will be evaluated in a single blind process. Papers must not exceed 8 single-spaced, double-column pages using 10-point font on 8.5x11 inch pages  (excluding references). Manuscripts must use IEEE Conference style available here:  https://www.ieee.org/conferences/publishing/templates.html . Submitted papers must not be under review at another conference, journal or workshop. One of the authors of accepted papers is expected to present at the workshop.
