Indo-US Workshop on Parallelism and the Future of High-Performance Computing


in conjunction with
ACM Symposium on Principles and Practice of Parallel Programming
IEEE International Symposium on High-Performance Computer Architecture
Jan 9-14, 2010
Bangalore, India

IMPORTANT DATES

- Workshop date: Saturday-Sunday, Jan 9-10, 2010.

MOTIVATION

This is an NSF- and Indian government-sponsored workshop to discuss collaboration in research and education between researchers in India and the U.S. in the area of parallel computing. Participation is by invitation only.

India is today tremendously influential in both industrial and academic Computer Science, and this influence is bound to increase in the coming years. Developing opportunities for collaboration is in the interest of CS communities in both countries. This workshop will be the first attempt of the funding agencies of both countries at fostering interactions.

ORGANIZATIONAL DETAILS

The workshop will consist of presentations, poster sessions and break-out discussion groups. The presentations and poster sessions will give an overview of research, funding, and education issues. The break out groups will prepare recommendations for future collaborations potentially including student /faculty exchanges, joint Summer schools, and joint research projects. We will finalize the program and schedule presentations once we know the list of participants.

We expect the participation of approximately 20 senior researchers from US universities and other institutions as well as five senior research managers from industry. A similar number of participants from India are expected. There will also be a student component to the workshop to exchange experiences and discuss research issues.
