========
Overview
========

EuroMPI is the preeminent meeting for users, developers and researchers to
interact and discuss new developments and applications of message-passing
parallel computing, in particular in and related to the Message Passing
Interface (MPI). The annual meeting has a long, rich tradition, and has been
held in European countries. The EuroMPI 2018 edition will continue to
focus on
not just MPI, but also extensions or alternative interfaces for
high-performance homogeneous/heterogeneous/hybrid systems, benchmarks,
tools,
parallel I/O, fault tolerance, and parallel applications using MPI and other
interfaces. 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.
