Announcing the CERN openlab / Intel -
Spring 2011 9th – 10th May 2011, CERN
As researchers are
reaching the limits of processor performance
improvements by frequency scaling, it is clear
that the future of computing lies in the
effective utilization of parallel and multi-core
architectures. Since this significant change in
computing is well underway, it is highly
beneficial for programmers to be aware of the
possibilities and dangers which lie ahead. Event highlights: • Day 1, AM: Lectures
o Fundamental
aspects of multi-threaded and parallel
computing: • Day 1, PM: Hands-on lab #1
o Intel Threading
Tools overview and exercises • Day 2 AM: Lectures
o OpenMP discussion • Day 2 PM: Hands-on lab #2 o Parallel programming exercises in Linux environments Pre-requisites:
• Familiarity with
the C or C++ programming language
The workshop is
organised by CERN openlab for users affiliated
with CERN, free of charge at this time.
Registrations are based on a first-come
first-served basis – 40 seats are available for
the lectures and only 16 seats for the labs –
please indicate whether the lectures or both the
lectures and labs are of interest to you during
