The Seventh International Workshop on Programming Models and Applications for<br>Multicores and Manycores will be co–located with the PPoPP 2016 conference<br>in March 12–16, 2016, Barcelona, Spain.<br>Rapid advancements in multicore and chip–level multi–threading<br>technologies open new challenges and make multicore systems a part of the<br>computing landscape. From high–end servers to mobile phones, multicores<br>and manycores are steadily entering every single aspect of the information<br>technology.<br>However most programmers are trained in sequential programming, yet most<br>existing parallel programming models are prone to errors such as data race<br>and deadlock. Therefore to fully utilise multicore and manycore hardware,<br>parallel programming models that allow easy transition of sequential<br>programs to parallel programs with good performance and enable development<br>of error–free codes are urgently needed.<br>This workshop is dedicated primarily to gather researchers and<br>practitioners addressing the main challenges and share experiences in the<br>emerging multicore and manycore software engineering and distributed<br>programming paradigm. This workshop aims to provide a discussion forum for<br>people interested in programming environments, models, tools and<br>applications specifically designed for parallel multicore and manycore<br>hardware environments.<br>The program committee cordially invites any novel research ideas in (but<br>not limited to) the following topics:<br>* programming models and systems for multicore, manycore, and clusters of multicore/manycore<br>* multicore and manycore software engineering<br>* parallel and distributed algorithms on GPU and multicore clusters<br>* parallel libraries and frameworks<br>* performance analysis, efficiency and effectiveness<br>* massively parallel processing on multicore/manycore systems and clusters<br>* automated parallelization and compilation techniques<br>* debugging and performance autotuning tools and techniques for multicore/manycore applications<br>* parallel algorithms, applications and benchmarks on multicore/manycore systems<br>* runtime power/energy management on multicore/manycore systems and clusters<br>* fault tolerance and resilience<br>
