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:

   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

Four invited talks will be given by

Pete Beckman, Director, Exascale Technology and Computing Institute
George Bosilca, Research Professor, Innovative Computing Laboratory,UTK
Michael Resch, Director, High Performance Computing Center Stuttgart (HLRS)
Sudip Dosanjh, Senior Manager, Sandia National Laboratories

In the scientific program 29 selected papers will be presented, including two best papers, and 9 poster/short presentations.

The Special Session on Improving MPI User And Developer Interaction (IMUDI) will be held in conjunction with EuroMPI (http://press.mcs.anl.gov/imudi2011/cfp/) on Wednesday 21st September. In IMUDI two invited talks will be given and three papers will be presented.
