Call for Papers

Scope

The workshop is focused on the design, implementation, execution, and analysis of experiments in parallel computing in order to improve the reproducibility of results.

Topics addressed in the workshop include:

• Experimental design of parallel computing experiments
• Experiences and best practices for conducting experiments, e.g., papers that address the reproduction of scientific studies of others
• Supporting reproducibility in experimental testbeds for parallel computing
• Tools for reproducible research (e.g., versioning, archiving, workflow engines)
• Analysis of experimental data (e.g., visualization, statistical analysis, provenance)

Paper Types

1. full paper: a regular article with up to 12 pages
2. short paper: 6 pages presenting first results
3. position paper: a 3-4 pages addressing viewpoints on the reproducibility problem

Authors have the opportunity to publish an extended version (6 – 12 pages) of their accepted (short or position) papers in the proceedings of the Euro-Par workshops.
