Mobile 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. And furthermore, Stratix 10 now is released with an ARM processor allowing the entire architecture to follow big.LITTLE topology.

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.
