BACKGROUND AND TOPICS

EuroMPI is the primary meeting where the users and developers 
of MPI and other message-passing programming environments can 
interact. The 18th European MPI Users' Group Meeting will be a 
forum for the users and developers of MPI, but also welcome 
hybrid programing models that combine message passing with 
programming of modern architectures such as multi-core, or 
accelerators. Through the presentation of contributed papers, 
poster presentations and invited talks, attendees will have the 
opportunity to share ideas and experiences to contribute to the 
improvement and furthering of message-passing and related parallel
programming paradigms.

Topics of interest for the meeting include, but are not limited to:

   * Algorithms using the message-passing paradigm
   * Applications in science and engineering based on message-passing
   * User experiences in programming heterogeneous systems using MPI
   * Tools and environments for programming heterogeneous systems using MPI
   * MPI implementation issues and improvements
   * Latest extensions to MPI
   * MPI for high-performance computing, clusters and grid environments
   * New message-passing and hybrid parallel programming paradigms
   * Interaction between message-passing software and hardware
   * Fault tolerance in message-passing programs
   * Performance evaluation of MPI applications
   * Tools and environments for MPI

Submissions on applications demonstrating both the potential and 
shortcomings of message passing programming and specifically MPI 
are particularly welcome.

Proposals for co-located workshops are welcome. EuroMPI 2011 will 
also hold an outstanding papers session, where the best papers 
selected by the program committee will be presented.
