[hpc-announce] Workshop on Parallel Matrix Algorithms and Applications (PMAA'14), July 2-4, 2014

[Peter Arbenz]

8th INTERNATIONAL WORKSHOP ON
PARALLEL MATRIX ALGORITHMS AND APPLICATIONS (PMAA'14)

July 2-4, 2014, Lugano, Switzerland.

http://pmaa14.ics.usi.ch/

This international workshop aims to be a forum for exchanging ideas,
insights and experiences in different areas of parallel computing in which
matrix algorithms play a key role.  The Workshop will bring together 
experts
and practitioners from diverse disciplines with a common interest in matrix
computation.  Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the
following:

* Parallel methods for solving large sparse or dense linear systems of
   equations and eigenvalue problem.
* Parallel environments and tools for enabling matrix applications.
* Large scale applications from any field that have an emphasis on
   parallel matrix computation.
* Novel architectural paradigms (e.g. GPU and Xeon Phi)
* Hybrid approaches to parallel programming.
* Automatic tuning and performance modeling.
* Combinatorial Scientific Computing

Invited speakers: Wolfgang Bangerth (Texas A&M), Eric Darve (Stanford),
Jacek Gondzio (Edinburgh), Wim Vanroose (Antwerpen).

Co-Chairs: Peter Arbenz, Ahmed Sameh, Rolf Krause, Olaf Schenk.
