  Submissions are requested from industry experts, developers and academia
on all topics related to OpenMP, including but not limited to: application
development from any discipline, algorithms, performance analysis, tools and
libraries, optimization, verification, portability and education. Sessions
can be in the form of technical presentations, tutorials and workshops,
posters or panel discussions.  All submissions should be in the form of
short abstracts (Minimum 300 words - Maximum 1,000 words) that will go
through a peer review process.  Session materials will be posted on the
OpenMPCon website and will be available to conference attendees.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
