IPDPS takes place from May 21-25, 2012 inShanghai, China.
HIPS is currently scheduled for Monday, May 21.

The 17th HIPS workshop, to be held as a full-day meeting at the IPDPS 2012 conference in Shanghai, focuses on high-level programming of multiprocessors, compute clusters, and massively parallel machines. Like previous workshops in the series, which was established in 1996, this event serves as a forum for research in the areas of parallel applications, language design, compilers, runtime systems, and programming tools. It provides a timely and lightweight forum for scientists and engineers to present the latest ideas and findings in these rapidly changing fields.

We especially encourage innovative approaches in the areas of emerging programming models for large-scale parallel systems and many-core architectures. The topics include but are not limited to:

• New programming languages and constructs for exploiting parallelism and locality
• Experience with and improvements for existing parallel languages and run-time environments such as MPI, OpenMP, Cilk, UPC, and Co-array Fortran
• Parallel compilers, programming tools, and environments
• (Scalable) tools for performance analysis, modeling, monitoring, and debugging
• OS and architectural support for parallel programming and debugging
• Software and system support for extreme scalability including fault tolerance
• Programming environments for heterogeneous multicore systems and accelerators such as GPUs, FPGAs, and Cell
