The PMBS17 workshop is concerned with the comparison of<br>high–performance computing systems through performance modeling,<br>benchmarking or through the use of tools such as simulators.<br>We are particularly interested in research which reports the<br>ability to measure and make tradeoffs in software/hardware<br>co–design to improve sustained application performance. We are<br>also keen to capture the assessment of future systems, for<br>example through work that ensures continued application<br>scalability through peta– and exa–scale systems.<br>The aim of this workshop is to bring together researchers, from<br>industry and academia, concerned with the qualitative and<br>quantitative evaluation and modeling of high–performance<br>computing systems. Authors are invited to submit novel research<br>in all areas of performance modeling, benchmarking and<br>simulation, and we welcome research that brings together current<br>theory and practice. We recognize that the coverage of the term<br>′performance′ has broadened to include power consumption and<br>reliability, and that performance modeling is practiced through<br>analytical methods and approaches based on software tools and<br>simulators.<br>Topics of Interest<br>We encourage submissions in the following areas:<br>– Performance modeling, analysis, and prediction of applications<br>and high–performance computing systems<br>– Novel techniques and tools for performance evaluation and<br>prediction<br>– Advanced simulation techniques and tools<br>– Micro–benchmarking, application benchmarking and tracing<br>– Performance–driven code optimization and scalability analysis<br>– Verification and validation of performance models<br>– Benchmarking and performance analysis of novel hardware<br>– Performance concerns in software/hardware co–design<br>– Tuning and auto–tuning of HPC applications and algorithms<br>– Benchmark suites<br>– Performance visualisation<br>– Real–world case studies<br>– Studies of novel hardware such as Intel Xeon Phi co–processor<br>technology, NVIDIA Kepler GPUs and AMD Fusion APU<br>
