Join Us to Celebrate 20 Years of Enabling High Performance Parallel Computing
The release of the first OpenMP API specification and the formation of the OpenMP Architecture Review Board (ARB) both celebrate their 20th anniversary this year. Two key events that will be part of the official celebrations marking this milestone are: OpenMPCon 2017 and IWOMP 2017. Both events take place at Stony Brook University in New York, USA between the 18-22 of September and are open for submissions.
“Developers attending this year’s OpenMPCon and IWOMP conferences will have the added bonus of joining us to celebrate the vital contribution OpenMP has made by enabling high-performance computing over the past two decades and will also help us to shape OpenMP’s next twenty years.” said Michael Klemm, OpenMP CEO.
About OpenMPCon 2017
OpenMPCon (September 18-20) provides a unique forum for OpenMP developers to present and discuss the development of real-world applications, libraries, tools and techniques that leverage the performance of parallel processing through the use of OpenMP. The deadline for OpenMPCon submissions is June 1.
About IWOMP 2017
Now in its 13th year, IWOMP (September 21-22) is the Internation Workshop on OpenMP that focuses on the presentation of unpublished academic research and takes place immediately after OpenMPCon. The submission deadline for IWOMP papers is April 28.
Since its advent in 1997, the OpenMP programming model has proved to be a key driver behind parallel programming for shared-memory architectures. Its powerful and flexible programming model has allowed researchers from various domains to enable parallelism in their applications. Over the two decades of its existence, OpenMP has tracked the evolution of hardware and the complexities of software to ensure that it stays as relevant to today’s high performance computing community as it was in 1997.
