[ofa-general] [hpc-announce] P2S2 2010 Call for Participation

[Yong Chen]

Dear Colleagues,

The final program for the Third International Workshop on Parallel
Programming Models and Systems Software for High-end Computing (P2S2)
is now available on the workshop website:
http://www.mcs.anl.gov/events/workshops/p2s2

This year the workshop features 10 highly relevant technical talks
describing improvements to parallel programming models and systems
software in the past year. The workshop also features a technical
panel titled: "Is Hybrid Programming a Bad Idea Whose Time has Come?"
where a wide range of high profile panelists in this area will argue
on programming issues in the hybrid/heterogeneous computing era.

We would like to welcome you all to attend this year's P2S2 workshop
and look forward to seeing you on September 13th, in San Diego,
California.
