Call for papers

IWOMP 2011, 7th International Workshop on OpenMP, June 13 – 15, 2011, Chicago USA

The 2011 International Workshop on OpenMP (IWOMP 2011) will be held in Chicago, IL. It is the premier forum to present and discuss issues, trends, recent research ideas and results related to parallel pro-gramming with OpenMP. The international workshop affords an opportunity for OpenMP users as well as developers to come together for discussions and sharing new ideas and information on this topic. IWOMP 2011 will be a three-day event. The fi rst day will consist of tutorials focusing on topics of interest to current and prospective OpenMP developers, suitable for both beginners as well as those interested in learning of recent developments in the evolving OpenMP standard. The second and third days will consist of technical papers and panel session(s) during which research ideas and results will be presented and discussed.

IWOMP 2010 6th International Workshop on OpenMP, June 14-16, 2010, Tsukuba, Japan

"Beyond Loop Level Parallelism in OpenMP: Accelerators, Tasking and More"

The International Workshop on OpenMP is an annual series of workshops dedicated to the promotion and advancement of all aspects focusing on parallel programming with OpenMP. OpenMP is now a major programming model for shared memory systems from multi-core machines to large scale servers. Recently, new ideas and challenges are proposed to extend OpenMP framework for adopting accelerators and also exploiting parallelism beyond loop levels. The workshop serves as a forum to present the latest research ideas and results related to this shared memory programming model. It also offers the opportunity to interact with OpenMP users, developers and the people working on the next release of the standard. The 2010 International Workshop on OpenMP (IWOMP 2010) will be held in the high-tech city of Tsukuba, Japan.

OpenMP 3.0 specifications released!

The final 3.0 specs is available.  The major achievement is the new tasking concept, which considerably increases OpenMP's applicability for a large class of applications. Furthermore it improves the support of nested parallelization and includes quite a few clarifications and corrections.

The OpenMP ARB's Website has been considerably overhauled

Please find plenty of up-to-date information around OpenMP there.

 

About...

cOMPunity is the community of OpenMP researchers and developers in academia and industry. It is a forum for the dissemination and exchange of information about OpenMP. cOMPunity is also a forum for discussing our experiences with this programming API and for debating ideas that might improve it. cOMPunity was formally incorporated as a non-profit organization on November 14, 2001

OpenMP was developed by a consortium of computer vendors to enable the creation of portable, high-level shared memory parallel programs under Fortran, C and C++.

The cOMPunity website will provide up-to-date information on OpenMP-related news and events. It is a repository of resources for learning about OpenMP, reading about the experiences of application developers who use the language, and for finding out about recent research activities. It will also be the site for obtaining OpenMP freeware and benchmarks.

We welcome contributions on all of the above.
For comments, suggestions and contributions concerning the web site feel free to contact the webmaster.
