OpenMP ARB Announces IWOMP 2014 Workshop in BrazilCHAMPAIGN, Ill. --(Business Wire)-- The OpenMP ARB announces the tenth International Workshop on OpenMP (IWOMP), which is the premier forum to present and discuss issues, trends, recent research ideas and results related to parallel programming with OpenMP. The international workshop affords an opportunity for OpenMP users as well as developers to come together for discussions and for sharing new ideas and information on this topic. IWOMP 2014 will be a three-day event. It will be held from Sept 28 to 30, 2014 in Salvador, Bahia, Brazil, hosted by SENAI, CIMATEC. The deadline for pape submission is May 9, 2013. The website is http://www.iwomp.org. Submissions of unpublished technical papers detailing innovative, original research and development related to OpenMP are solicited. All topics related to OpenMP are of interest, including OpenMP performance analysis and modeling, OpenMP performance and correctness tools, proposed OpenMP extensions, and OpenMP applications in any domain (e.g., scientific computation, video games, computer graphics, multimedia, information retrieval, optimization, text processing, data mining, finance, signal and image processing and numerical solvers). Advances in technologies, such as multi-core processors and OpenMP devices (accelerators such as GPGPUs, DSPs or FPGAs), Multiprocessor Systems on a Chip (MPSoCs), and recent developments in OpenMP itself (e.g., tasking) present new opportunities and challenges for software and hardware developers. IWOMP 2014 particularly solicits submissions in these areas as well as ones that discuss how to apply OpenMP to additional models of parallelism such as event loops. About OpenMP The OpenMP ARB has as mission to standardize directive-based multi-language high-level parallelism that is performant, productive and portable. Jointly defined by a group of major computer hardware and software vendors, the OpenMP API is a portable, scalable model that gives parallel programmers a simple and flexible interface for developing parallel applications for platforms ranging from embedded systems and accelerator devices to multicore systems and shared-memory systems. The OpenMP ARB owns the OpenMP brand, oversees the OpenMP specification and produces and approves new versions of the specification. Further information can be found at http://www.openmp.org/.
