The LCPC workshop is a forum for sharing research on all aspects of concurrency: parallel languages, parallel programming models, compilers, runtime systems, and tools. The scope of the workshop spans foundational results and practical experience, early ideas and interesting results. LCPC encourages work that goes outside the scope of scientific computing and enables parallel programming in new areas, such as mobile computing and data centers.

Specific topics include:

Parallel programming models
Parallel programming languages
Compiling for parallelism and parallel compilers
Static, dynamic, and adaptive optimization of parallel programs
Formal analysis and verification of parallel programs
Parallel runtime systems
Parallel libraries and parallel application frameworks
Performance analysis tools for concurrency
Debugging tools for parallel programs
Parallel algorithms and concurrent data structures
Parallel applications
Synchronization and concurrency control
Software engineering for parallel programs
Fault tolerance for parallel systems
Parallel programming for accelerators
Papers should report on original research, and should include enough background material to make them accessible to the entire LCPC research community. Papers describing experiences should indicate how they illustrate general principles; papers about parallel programming foundations should indicate how they relate to practice.

All submissions must be made electronically through the submission web site. Abstracts must include contact information, the full list of authors and their affiliations, and a summary description (100-300 words) of the anticipated content of the paper. LCPC 2013 papers are limited to 15 pages in the Springer LNCS format. Papers must be submitted in PDF format and must be viewable by Adobe Acrobat Reader. Papers that are not readable are automatically rejected. The proceedings will be published by Springer. Authors of accepted papers and posters will be required to sign the Springer copyright form. Instructions for preparing papers for the proceedings will be emailed to authors of accepted papers.
