Heterogeneity is ubiquitous, not only in terms of processing units but also memories and networks. As heterogeneity increases, memory subsystems play an even more important role to attain performance, from their technology to the system architecture to the software management and programming model. While CPU-only compute nodes are becoming rare instances, heterogeneous memory architectures have recently emerged and revolutionized the traditional memory hierarchy. Today’s and upcoming architectures may well comprise multiple memory technologies next to DRAM, accelerators with dedicated memories, or even specific expansion cards hosting memory alone, such as: 3D-stacked memory, high-bandwidth multi-channel RAM, unified/shared memory on accelerators, Compute Express Link (CXL)-based architectures, persistent memory, or MRDIMMs.
As in previous years, the Workshop on Heterogeneous Memory Systems, now rebranded as Heterogeneity and Memory Systems (HMEM), will bring together different research efforts and expertise to the end of integrating different approaches and democratizing the use of resource heterogeneity from a memory perspective, to benefit applications not only in terms of performance, but also energy efficiency and cost trade-offs. The main goal of the workshop is to push the research frontiers forward by exchanging knowledge and debating ideas through featured talks, technical paper presentations, and interactive discussions. Overall, topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

The authors of accepted submissions will give a talk at the workshop and participate in the closing discussion panel.
Three kinds of submissions are possible:
Full papers: 8 pages + 2 additional pages (including references), must not include author names (double-blind review).
Short papers: 4 pages + 2 additional pages (including references), must not include author names (double-blind review).
Abstracts of previous publications: 2 pages, which summarize recently accepted/published at top-tier conferences/journals. In this case, the author names and references to the published works should be included in the abstract. This kind of submission will not be published in the proceedings.
