- This summer, Dartmouth will hold its second DAGS institute to promote
- the use of high-performance computing. As in 1992, when it was
- established with the support of the NSF and Dartmouth College, the
- institute will bring together researchers and practitioners from
- academia and industry. This year, the institute will be composed of
- two parts: a symposium (June 21-23) of invited and contributed talks,
- followed by a hands-on school (June 24-30) on parallel programming.
- Housing will be available at economical rates in college dormitories,
- near to conference sessions and centrally located on the Dartmouth
- campus.
-
- June 21-23: SYMPOSIUM The focus of the symposium this year will be
- on parallel I/O and databases. Invited speakers: Alok Aggarwal (IBM
- T.J. Watson), Garth Gibson (Carnegie Mellon), David Scott (Intel
- Supercomputers), Jeffrey Vitter (Duke), David Waltz (Thinking
- Machines), John Wilkes (Hewlett-Packard).
-
- A limited number of contributed papers will be selected for
- presentation. Although the focus of the invited speakers is on
- parallel I/O and databases, we welcome contributed papers on any of
- the following topics:
- parallel I/O systems and algorithms,
- parallel database systems,
- software issues in the construction of parallel programs,
- parallel-programming environments and tools,
- implementation issues of parallel algorithms,
- visualization algorithms and tools.
-
- Authors are invited to send 10 copies of their doubled-spaced
- manuscripts to be received by February 15, 1993. Manuscripts should
- be limited to 20 pages. Contributors will be notified of acceptance
- by March 15, 1993 and will be given instructions for the final
- presentation of their paper at that time. Please send research papers
- to Debra Minichiello, 6188 Bradley Hall, Dartmouth College, Hanover,
- NH 03755-3551 (email: debra.minichiello@dartmouth.edu).
-
- June 24-30: SCHOOL ON PARALLEL PROGRAMMING The school will involve
- a hands-on course on programming parallel algorithms using the NESL
- parallel language. The course will be taught by the developer of
- NESL, Professor Guy Blelloch of Carnegie Mellon University. The course
- will introduce several parallel data structures and a variety of
- parallel algorithms and then look at how they can be implemented. The
- school will include other activities conducted by different faculty of
- the DAGS '93 school, such as tutorials on various software issues of
- parallel programming and exposure to or demonstration of other
- parallel programming languages, such as C*.
