CALL FOR PAPERS

International Workshop on OpenMP: Experiences and Implementations

(part of the International Symposium on High
Performance Computing ISHPC-V)

Tokyo Fashion Town Building, Tokyo International Trade Center
(Odaiba, Tokyo, JAPAN)
October, 20-22, 2003

The deadline of submission was extended to 7 June 2003.

OpenMP is an industry standard interface for shared memory programming of parallel computer applications. OpenMP offers a way to write applications with a shared memory programming model portable to a wide range of parallel computers. In addition, a number of research groups are devoting their efforts to envisage future enhancements of the language, implement tools, compilers and run-time environments.

The workshop will focus its attention on different aspects of OpenMP. On the one side, the focus is on experiences from application developers in the use of the language and performance of real applications. On the other side, experiences in the implementation of compilers, runtime systems and tools supporting the development and parallelization of applications with OpenMP. The workshop also welcomes experiences in moving ideas and concepts from other programming models like HPF to OpenMP.

WOMPEI 2003 follows a series of workshops on OpenMP, such as WOMPAT 2003, EWOMP 2003, and WOMPEI 2002. It is part of the cOMPunity initiative whose main objective is the dissemination and exchange of information about OpenMP.

The workshop is organized as part of the fourth International Symposium on High Performance Computing (ISHPC-V). The symposium will bring together researchers, developers and advanced users from academia, business and industry to share information and explore novel ideas on high performance computing from the three perspectives of software, architecture and applications.

We strongly encourage potential participants to submit papers for presentation at the workshop and publication in the ISHPC proceedings. The proceedings of ISHPC-V will be published as a volume of Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) of Springer-Verlag.

Submissions follow the general guidelines and deadlines of ISHPC and will be reviewed by at least three referees. All submissions must be received by

7th June 2003 (New: extended deadline)
