SUMMARY:Workshop on Fault-Tolerance for HPC at Extreme Scale (FTXS)
DESCRIPTION:Introduction - Workshop on Fault-Tolerance for HPC at Extreme 
 Scale (FTXS)\n\nAddressing failures in extreme-scale systems remains a sig
 nificant challenge to reaching exascale.  Current projections suggest that
  at the scale necessary to sustain exaflops of computation, systems could 
 experience failures as frequently as once per hour.  As a result, robust a
 nd efficient fault t...\n\n\nNathan DeBardeleben (Los Alamos National Labo

 lerant Preconditioned Conjugate Gradient Methods\n\nWe compare and refine 
 exact and heuristic fault-tolerance extensions for the preconditioned conj
 ugate gradient (PCG) and the split preconditioner conjugate gradient (SPCG
 ) methods for recovering from failures of compute nodes of large-scale par
 allel computers. In the exact state reconstruction (ESR)...\n\n\nCarlos Pa

 on Applications in the Titan Supercomputer\n\nExtreme-scale computing syst
 ems employ Reliability, Availability and Serviceability (RAS) mechanisms a
 nd infrastructure to log events from multiple system components. In this p
 aper, we analyze RAS logs in conjunction with the application placement an

 ------\nFault Tolerant Cholesky Factorization on GPUs\n\nDirect Cholesky-b
 ased solvers are typically used to solve large linear systems where the co
 efficient matrix is symmetric positive definite. These solvers offer faste
 r performance in solving such linear systems, compared to other more gener
 al solvers such as LU and QR solvers. In recent days, graphic...\n\n\nFeli

 Fault Frequency in Higher-Order DG Schemes\n\nSoft error rates are increas
 ing as modern architectures require increasingly small features at low vol
 tages. Due to the large number of components used in HPC architectures, th
 ese are particularly vulnerable to soft errors. Hence, when designing appl
 ications that run for long time periods on large m...\n\n\nAnne Reinarz, J

 -----------------\nToward Ad Hoc Recovery For Soft Errors\n\nThe coming ex
 ascale era is a great opportunity for high performance computing (HPC) app
 lications. However, high failure rates on these systems will hazard the su
 ccessful completion of their execution. Bit-flip errors in dynamic random 
 access memory (DRAM) account for a noticeable share of the failur...\n\n\n

 ----------\nCPU Overheating Characterization in HPC Systems: a Case Study\
 n\nWith the increase in size of supercomputers, the number of abnormal eve
 nts also increases. Some of these events might lead to an application fail
 ure. Others might simply impact the system efficiency. CPU overheating is 
 one such event that decreases the system efficiency: when a CPU overheats,
