- Topic 1: Applications and Algorithms
-
The application of parallel computers to solve all
types of business, industrial, scientific and engineering
problems; numerical and non-numerical algorithms. The
emphasis should be on the impact of the
parallel processing paradigm.
- Topic 2: Systems Software
-
Operating systems, languages and compilers;
techniques such as threading; scheduling,
load balancing; message passing; automatic
parallelisation, etc.
- Topic 3: Hardware
-
Parallel computer hardware; architectural concepts;
simulation; communication systems, protocols;
enabling technologies, etc.
For each topic, aspects relating to
- methodologies
- software engineering and programming paradigms
- development environments
- performance and benchmarking
- debugging
- visualisation
- etc.
may be discussed. Preference will be given to papers
discussing real implementation and practical experiences.
