2018 Keynote Speakers
Michael A. Bender
Stony Brook University
Tuesday, May 22nd
Title: The Algorithmics of Write Optimization
Abstract: Write-optimized dictionaries (WODs), such as LSM trees and B^epsilon trees, are increasingly used in databases and file systems. Such data structures support very fast insertions without sacrificing lookup performance.
This talk explains how WODs can substantially reduce the I/O cost of many workloads, enabling some applications to scale by orders of magnitude. In contrast, traditional data structures, such as B-trees, are often I/O bound on these workloads. The talk explores write-optimization from the perspective of foundational theory, parallelization, and applications.
Bio: Michael A. Bender is a professor of computer science at Stony Brook University. His research interests span the areas of data structures and algorithms, I/O-efficient computing, parallel computing, and scheduling. He has coauthored over 130 articles on these and other topics. He has won several awards, including an R&D 100 Award, a Test-of-Time award, two Best Paper Awards, and five awards for graduate and undergraduate teaching.
Bender was Founder and Chief Scientist at Tokutek, Inc, an enterprise database company, which was acquired by Percona in 2015. He has held Visiting Scientist positions at both MIT and King's College London.
Bender received his B.A. in Applied Mathematics from Harvard University in 1992 and obtained a D.E.A. in Computer Science from the Ecole Normale Superieure de Lyon, France in 1993. He completed a Ph.D. on Scheduling Algorithms from Harvard University in 1998.

Title: Empowering flexible and scalable high performance architectures with embedded photonics
Abstract: The recent explosive growth in data analytics applications that rely on machine and deep learning techniques are seismically changing the landscape of high performance architectures. These techniques rely on graphics processing units (GPU) and manycore (CPU) technologies whose need for intense performance is pushing current interconnect networks to their limits. Driven by these applications, the execution performance along with the energy consumption of massive parallel systems is increasingly determined by how data is moved among the numerous compute and memory resources. Embedded photonic interconnect technologies can address critical data-movement challenges by delivering higher communication bandwidth densities at significantly improved energy efficiencies. New disaggregated architectures enabled by embedded photonics and optical bandwidth steering can reduce the system-wide energy consumption.
Bio: Keren Bergman is the Charles Batchelor Professor of Electrical Engineering at Columbia University where she also serves as the Scientific Director of the Columbia Nano Initiative.

Title: The Day After Tomorrow: The Looming Post-Exascale Crisis
Abstract: This is the best of times for high-performance computing. Our simulations continue to grow in complexity and sophistication, and they drive progress in the physical sciences and engineering, improving the world in myriad ways. Around the globe multiple plans are underway to achieve exascale performance by the early 2020's. Although considerable challenges remain, it seems that we can get to the exascale with familiar technologies and programming models.
But while the immediate future looks bright, significant problems lie ahead. With Dennard scaling long-dead, device technologies won't save us from crippling power requirements for a 10 exaflop machine. And with Moore's Law sputtering towards end-of-life, performance is not improving much with each new generation of chips. There has been considerable excitement about the promise of quantum computing, reversible computing and other exotic concepts. But it seems likely that these will not become general-purpose approaches to computing for many years, if ever.
Simultaneously, the demands on our simulations are increasing. As HPC gets used for critical decisions, we need to enhance our capabilities to understand uncertainties and to optimize designs. Meanwhile, new applications in biomedicine, social sciences and other data-centric fields are adding additional complexity to our ecosystem. These are welcome and exciting opportunities, but the are appearing at a time when our near-future is highly uncertain.
In this talk I will provide a perspective on these challenges and possible paths forward. I will argue that dramatic changes in computer architecture are unavoidable, and that these changes will be highly disruptive for our approach to algorithms and software. I will describe some of the research challenges that will need to be overcome to enable continued progress.
As with the change from serial to parallel computing in the early 90s, we are approaching an era of great uncertainty. We will need to be prepared to revisit many of our existing assumptions about High Performance Computing.

IPDPS 2018 SYMPOSIUM PANEL
Attracting the Underrepresented: Can Parallel and Distributed Computing Community Foster Social Change?
Panel Members:
Anne Benoit, ENS Lyon and Georgia Tech
Francine Berman, Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute
Barbara Simons, Chair of Verified Voting Foundation, IBM Researcher, and Past President of ACM
Moderator:
Martina Barnas, Indiana University Bloomington
Description:
The underrepresentation of women and other identifiable groups in tech fields is a consequence of the underlying societal context and in turn has societal consequences, e.g., gender wage gap. Much work has been done in the United States where a number of professional organizations and nonprofits - CRA-W, NCWIT and AnitaB.org to mention a few - stepped up to lead the change with high profile activities such as the Grace Hopper conference as well as many smaller scale activities at all stages of the professional pipeline. While CS enrollment has seen a surge in recent years, according to CRA's Generation CS report, there is mixed news about increasing diversity. Interestingly, according to the 2017 "UNESCO Science report: towards 2030," an analysis of computer science shows a steady decrease in female graduates since 2000 that is particularly marked in high-income countries. There are exceptions, but even in countries where the proportion of female graduates has increased, the numbers remain very low. Moreover, gender parity remains elusive among researchers in most fields, including computing. A UNESCO Science report states that some high-income countries have a surprisingly low proportion of female researchers; for example, just one in four researchers is a woman in France, Germany, and the Netherlands. Additionally, the report finds that the glass ceiling is still intact. Each step in the ladder of scientific hierarchy sees a drop in female participation, until at the highest levels of decision-making, there are very few women left. The distinguished panelists with ties to the Parallel and Distributed Computing community will share their thoughts, their experiences as professional women, and their vision for change.
