DESCRIPTION:


HIPS'01 is a full-day workshop to be held at the IPDPS 2001 focusing
on high-level programming of networks of workstations, computing
clusters and of massively-parallel machines. Its goal is to bring
together researchers working in the areas of applications, language
design, compilers, system architecture and programming tools to
discuss new developments in programming such systems.


The key issues for the success of programming parallel and distributed
environments are high-level programming concepts and efficiency. In
addition, other quality categories have to be taken into account, such
as scalability, security, bandwidth guarantees and fault tolerance,
just to name a few.


Today's challenge is to provide high-level programming concepts
without sacrificing efficiency. This is only possible by carefully
designing for those concepts and by providing supportive programming
environments that facilitate program development and tuning.


Papers should describe the interaction of high-level programming
models with compilers, run time systems, and hardware
support.
Original submissions are invited in all areas relevant to this theme.
Appropriate topics include (but are not restricted to):


* Concepts and languages for high-level parallel programming.
* Concurrent object-oriented programming.
* Distributed objects and components.
* Structured parallel programming (skeletons, patterns, ...).
* Software engineering principles for parallel system.
* Automatic parallelization and optimization.
* High-level programming environments.
* Automated performance analysis and performance modelling.
* Debugging techniques and development tools.
* Distributed shared memory.
* Implementation techniques for high-level programming models.
* Operating system support for runtime systems and middleware.
* Architectural support for high-level programming models.
* Guarantees for Quality of Service in distributed environments.
* Security of communication for distributed execution.
* Fault tolerance in network computing.


SUBMITTING PAPERS:


Papers should report new research and should not exceed 3000 words
(approximately 6 pages), including figures and references . All
accepted papers will be presented at the workshop and published as
joint proceedings for all IPDPS workshops in the Springer LNCS
series. Submissions should be sent using the automatic upload form
