SUMMARY:Introduction - Workshop on Fault-Tolerance for HPC at Extreme Scal
 e (FTXS)
DESCRIPTION:Nathan DeBardeleben (Los Alamos National Laboratory), Scott Le
 vy and Keita Teranishi (Sandia National Laboratories), and John Daly (Labo
 ratory for Physical Sciences at University of Maryland)\n\nAddressing fail
 ures in extreme-scale systems remains a significant challenge to reaching 
 exascale.  Current projections suggest that at the scale necessary to sust
 ain exaflops of computation, systems could experience failures as frequent
 ly as once per hour.  As a result, robust and efficient fault tolerance te
 chniques are critical to obtaining reasonable application performance.  Ad
 ditionally, it is also imperative that we develop and understanding of tre
 nds in hardware devices may affect the reliability of future systems.  The
  emergence of high-bandwidth memory devices, the continued deployment of b
 urst buffers, and the development of near-threshold devices to address pow
 er concerns will all impact fault tolerance on new systems.  These design 
 trends coupled with increases in the number, variety, and complexity of co
 mponents required to compose an extreme-scale system means that systems wi
 ll experience significant increases in aggregate fault rates, fault divers
 ity, and the complexity of isolating root causes.\n\nDue to the continued 
 need for research on fault tolerance in extreme-scale systems, the 8th Wor
 kshop on Fault-Tolerance for HPC at Extreme Scale (FTXS 2018) will present
  an opportunity for innovative research ideas to be shared, discussed, and
  evaluated by researchers in fault-tolerance, resilience, dependability, a
 nd reliability from academic, government, and industrial institutions.  Bu
 ilding on the success of the previous editions of the FTXS workshop, the o
 rganizers will assemble quality publications, invited talks, and panels to
  facilitate a lively and thought-provoking group discussion.\n\nTag: Resil
