Shared Memory Parallel Programming with Open MP: 5th International Workshop on Open MP Application and Tools, WOMPAT 2004, Houston, TX, USA, May 17-18, 2004 / Edition 1

by Barbara M. Chapman

Overview

This book contains the Proceedings of the 5th Workshop on OpenMP Appli- tions and Tools (WOMPAT2004), which took place at the University of Houston, Houston, Texas on May 17 and 18, 2004. Previous workshops in this series took place in Toronto, Canada, Fairbanks, Alaska, Purdue, Indiana, and San Diego, California. The purpose of the workshop was to bring together users and devel- ers of the OpenMP API for shared memory parallel programming to disseminate their ideas and experiences and discuss the latest developments in OpenMP and its application. To support this aim, the program comprised a mixture of invited talks from research and industry, experience reports, and submitted papers, the last of which are presented in this volume. A tutorial introduction to OpenMP was held at the same location on May 18 by Ruud van der Pas from Sun Microsystems. Further, a two-day lab session called OMPlab was held immediately following the workshop and the tutorial on May 19 and 20, and was attended by both novice and advanced users. Many of the hardware vendors and several researchers gave in-depth tutorials on their software and made their systems available to both novice and advanced attendees during OMPlab. Contributors to the WOMPAT 2004 OMPlab included IBM, Intel, Sun, the University of Tennessee, NASA, the University of Greenwich, Cornell University, the University of Oregon and the University of Houston. The Open MPAPI is a widely accepted standard for high-level shared memory parallel programming that was put forth by a consortium of vendors in 1997.
