o Communication sub-subsystems for high-end computing
o High-performance file and storage systems
o Fault-tolerance techniques and implementations
o Efficient and high-performance virtualization and other management
mechanisms for high-end computing

* Programming models and their high-performance implementations
o MPI, Sockets, OpenMP, Global Arrays, X10, UPC, Chapel, Fortress and others
o Hybrid Programming Models

* Tools for Management, Maintenance, Coordination and Synchronization
o Software for Enterprise Data-centers using Modern Architectures
o Job scheduling libraries
o Management libraries for large-scale system
o Toolkits for process and task coordination on modern platforms

* Performance evaluation, analysis and modeling of emerging computing platforms


PROCEEDINGS
