The Second International Workshop on Extreme Scale Computing APplication Enablement - Modeling and Tools (ESCAPE) will be held in conjunction with the 14th International Conference on High Performance Computing and Communications (HPCC 2012) in Liverpool, UK on June 25-27, 2012. The goal of this workshop is to promote community-wide discussion identifying the methodologies, analysis, and software tools, which can enable effective and scalable performance evaluation for extreme scale computing systems. We seek submissions of papers that invent new techniques, introduce new methodologies, propose new research directions and discuss approaches for unsolved issues.

The topics of this workshop are related to methodological aspects as well as practical of the application enablement in extreme scale computing. Topics of interest include (but are not limited to)

* Performance modeling for all aspects of extreme scale systems, e.g., cores, memory, interconnect and I/O, etc.
* Algorithms for self-tuning and -optimization of applications in extreme scale computing
* Profiling and debugging tools for applications in extreme scale computing
* Performance, tracing and simulation tools with extreme scalability
* Methodologies and tools for extreme scale performance evaluation, and verification
* Empirical and deployment studies of extreme scale performance tools: challenges, techniques and lessons
