and Embedded platforms are used everywhere today. Researchers and
system designers provide platforms with more features for
parallelization such as multicore architecture, integrated pipelining,
independent distributed and shared cache, per clock cycle execution and
on the other hand, they work on software architecture to support
aforementioned hardware, compilers and code generators, mobile operating
systems with ability of serving concurrent processes and threads. GPGPU
is currently the dominant platform for supercomputing. The challenge is
becoming more exciting when GPGPU chips with high number of simple
cores are embedded in SoC, facilitating developers to increase
computational speed on mobile platforms extensively. </font></div><div><font face="Verdana"><br></font></div><div><font face="Verdana">MEDIS
Workshop is aiming to collect and choose high quality papers in the
filed of mobile supercomputing and provide a platform for researchers
and scientists to discuss about future generation of ultra dense
multicore mobile and embedded platforms used in computationally heavy
applications. Such platforms will be used in Cognitive and Semantic
Robotics, ubiquities Computing, and they help improving the quality of
life in general. Papers are encouraged to present innovative ideas in
software or hardware design and development for parallel computing used
in mobile platforms. </font></div><div><font face="Verdana"><br></font></div><div><font face="Verdana">###Goal of the Workshop:</font></div><div><font face="Verdana">MEDIS 2015 fosters the following complementary objectives:</font></div><div><font face="Verdana">i. Inquiring on theory and practice of Parallel programming and supercomputing, especially for mobile and embedded devices. </font></div><div><font face="Verdana">ii. Exploring new mobile and embedded hardware architectures and kits facilitating massive parallelization in small scale. </font></div><div><font face="Verdana">iii.
Deploying new technologies in the fields of Parallel programming, ultra
dense supercomputing, and mobile GPGPU based computing. </font></div><div><font face="Verdana"><br></font></div><div><font face="Verdana">###Main Topics of Interest:</font></div><div><font face="Verdana">Topics
of interest include but not limited to Parallel Computation for
Embedded systems, Design and Development of Parallel and Multicore
Embedded platforms, Mobile Supercomputing, GPGPU SoC, Hardware
