Subject: libflame 3.0 now available
We are happy to announce the third milestone release of libflame, a modern
replacement for the most used functionality of the LAPACK linear algebra
library.
Some improvements since Spring 2008:
- A user's guide is now available from http://www.lulu.com/content/5915632, and
also within the libflame source code distribution in the form of LaTeX source.
- Performance improvements to SuperMatrix, libflame's runtime task scheduling
and SMP/multicore parallel execution system.
- Algorithms-by-blocks (also known as "tiled algorithms") implementations for
LU, Cholesky, and QR factorizations, and SPD/HPD matrix inversion, for all four
basic floating-point datatypes (s,d,c,z), parallelized for multi-threaded (SMP,
NUMA, multicore) architectures via SuperMatrix.
- Support for new BLAS-like operations not present in the BLAS or LAPACK.
- More robust parameter checking.
- In addition to the standard GNU/Linux build system, we now offer
out-of-the-box support for Microsoft Windows.
For a first introduction to libflame we recommend reading:
Field G. Van Zee, Ernie Chan, Robert A. van de Geijn, Enrique S. Quintana-Ortí,
and Gregorio Quintana-Ortí. "Introducing: The libflame Library for Dense Matrix
Computations." IEEE Computing in Science & Engineering, submitted.
available at http://www.cs.utexas.edu/users/flame/publications/ .
In that paper, we discuss what we view to be the strengths of libflame and give
a number of performance graphs that illustrate how the approach allows one to
quickly re-target the library to a new architecture. For example, extensions to
libflame are available that allow one to use GPU hardware accelerators to solve
20K x 20K SPD systems in seconds and 100K x 100K SPD systems in around 20
minutes.

The program is now available online and registration is now open for the 23rd
International Conference on Supercomputing (ICS 2009) at the ICS website at
http://www.ics-conference.org. Befitting its status as the premier
international forum for the presentation of research results in high-

submissions. The program committee selected the very best 24% of papers for
presentation, but had to reject a number of very high quality submissions.
To allow additional work to be presented this year, this years ICS
conference will feature a poster session to provide yet another forum for the
exchange of research ideas.
This year the conference will be held at the IBM T.J. Watson Research Center
in Yorktown Heights, NY, one of the industrys premier research facilities.
ACM has negotiated a reduced rate for ICS'09 conference attendees at the
Westchester Marriott, one of Westchester County's finest hotels and within

Subject: Numerical Math in Machine Learning, Montreal, Jun 2009
We invite participation NUMML 2009, our Workshop, to be held as a part of the
International Conference in Machine Learning (ICML), in Montreal, Canada, on
18th June, 2009.
Title: NUMML 2009 Numerical Mathematics in Machine Learning
Please visit http://numml.kyb.tuebingen.mpg.de/
for further details
Submission deadline: 4th May, 2009
Abstract:
Most machine learning (ML) algorithms rely fundamentally on concepts of
numerical mathematics. Standard reductions to black-box computational
primitives do not usually meet real-world demands and have to be
modified at all levels. The increasing complexity of ML problems
requires layered approaches, where algorithms are components rather than
stand-alone tools fitted individually with much human effort. In this
modern context, predictable run-time and numerical stability behavior of
algorithms become fundamental. Unfortunately, these aspects are widely
ignored today by ML researchers, which limits the applicability of ML
algorithms to complex problems, and therefore the practical scope of ML
as a whole.
Thanks,
The Organizers

Subject: Novel Data Formats and Algorithms for HPC, Poland, Sep 2009
A Workshop
on Novel Data Formats and Algorithms
for High Performance Computing
organized by
Fred Gustavson and Jerzy Wasniewski}
Abstract: Recently, several novel data formats were introduced into the
area of High Performance Computing with the intent of producing new
algorithms as well as improving their performance. Recursion, via the
divide-and-conquer paradigm, introduced variable blocking to complement
the standard fixed block algorithms. In particular, new data structures
for dense linear algebra became an active research area. This Workshop
will focus on both new data structures and/or new or existing algorithms
for in general high performance computing.
This workshop will be held at the conference
"PPAM 2009 PARALLEL PROCESSING and APPLIED MATHEMATICS",
Wroclaw, Poland,
September 13-16 2009,
"http://ppam.pl/".
A limited number of contributed, 20 minute talks will be selected for
this workshop. Extended abstracts no more than two pages should be sent
before May 15, 2009. The text can be in Latex, Postscript, PDF or pure
ASCII. Please send the text to email: "jw@imm.dtu.dk". The acceptance of
this abstract will be sent just after receiving it.
After acceptance, full papers according to the rules of the Springer
LNCS (http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/authors.html) and PPAM 2009
Conference (http://ppam.pl/?page=submission) may be submitted. In order
to be published in the Springer LNCS proceedings. They should be no
longer than 10 pages. Please send then by June 1, 2009. These submitted
papers will be read and evaluated by at least two reviewers.
Summary of important dates and notes:
May 15, 2009 -- abstracts maximum two pages,

This symposium focuses on research topics related to efficient algorithms
and data structures for discrete problems. In addition to the design of such
methods and structures, the scope also includes their use, performance
analysis, and the mathematical problems related to their development or
limitations. Performance analyses may be analytical or experimental and may
address worst-case or expected-case performance. Studies can be theoretical
or based on data sets that have arisen in practice and may address
methodological issues involved in performance analysis.
