Workshops and Tutorials

ACM Symposium on Parallelism in Algorithms and Architectures (SPAA) 2024 will take place June 17-21, 2024 in Nantes, France. To allow a broad audience to participate, SPAA will host a series of workshops and tutorials to learn more about research challenges and discuss research questions, to exchange exciting ideas, and to build up communities and possible new collaborations.

The SPAA 2024 workshops and tutorials will be held on June 17, 2024, which will consist of workshops for a half-day and tutorials for 1 or 1.5 hours.

Submissions (finished)

We welcome proposals for workshops and tutorials that are either within the scope of the SPAA community or research challenges in related areas/problems that have potential impacts on the SPAA community. Proposals will be evaluated on an ongoing basis so early submissions are encouraged and will be evaluated immediately.

Please submit proposals to the SPAA 2024 Workshops and Tutorials Chair (Yan Gu, ygu@ucr.edu). Workshop and tutorial proposals will be evaluated on an ongoing basis. Early submissions are encouraged and will be evaluated immediately. Proposals should be submitted by February 28, 2024.

Proposals should be brief (at most 3 single-column pages). The following information should be included in a workshop proposal:

  1. Title
  2. Name and email address of the organizer(s)
  3. A description of the proposed format and agenda
  4. Procedures for selecting participants and presenters

Here is a sample template that you can refer to, or you can use another format if you prefer.  We welcome workshops that are either invitation-based (example: Workshop on Filter Data Structures in SPAA 2023) or submission-based (example: Highlights of Parallel Computing (HOPC) 2023).

A tutorial is for either 1 or 1.5 hours, depending on the number of accepted tutorials and local arrangements.  A tutorial proposal should include the following information:

  1. The title and abstract
  2. An outline of tutorial content and objectives with enough details for both the scope and the depth
  3. Prerequisite knowledge
  4. A very brief biography of the tutorial organizers and relevant information

All workshop/tutorial proposals will be evaluated by a committee comprising the following members of the SPAA 2024 organizing committee.
