SECOND INTERNATIONAL WORKSHOP on OpenMP
IWOMP 2006

Reims, France
12-15 June 2006

MISSION STATEMENT - IWOMP

IWOMP 2006 will take place in Reims, FRANCE. It will feature invited talks
from Charles E. Leiserson, Professor of Computer Science and Engineering at
MIT, and Prof. Guang R. Gao, University of Delaware, founder and leader of
the Computer Architectures and Parallel Systems Laboratory. The workshop will
be a great opportunity for learning more about OpenMP, for practical
experience and interaction between OpenMP users and developers. In
keeping with the objectives and format of the previous workshops, IWOMP
2006 will feature two distinct parts. The first part, which will take
place in the Pommery Castle, will consist of presentations of technical
papers and panels.
The second part, which will take place at Reims University, will provide
attendees the opportunity to learn OpenMP through a tutorial that will
include several real-life case studies or to improve the performance of
their applications through a hands-on laboratory experience.

IWOMP is the consolidation of three OpenMP workshops: the European
Workshop on OpenMP (EWOMP), the Workshop on OpenMP Applications and
Tools (WOMPAT), and the Workshop on OpenMP Experiences and
Implementation (WOMPEI). IWOMP 2005, which was the first meeting of the
combined workshops, took place in Eugene, Oregon, USA.

Call for Technical Papers:
Authors are invited to submit technical papers detailing innovative,
original research and development related to OpenMP. All topics related
to OpenMP are of interest, including OpenMP applications in scientific
or other domains, OpenMP performance analysis and modelling, OpenMP
performance and correctness tools and proposed OpenMP extensions.
IWOMP 2006 will publish formal proceedings of the accepted papers in
LNCS. Submitted papers for review should be limited to 10 pages. Authors
of accepted papers will be asked to prepare final paper up to 12 pages.

Call for OpenMP Laboratory Proposals:
Application programmers are encouraged to provide a short description of
the program, especially the type of problem it solves, the method(s)
used, its development status, external software requirements (e.g.
libraries), programming language, current platform(s), plus an
indication what OpenMP aspects should be addressed in the laboratory
(e.g. performance, functionality, or porting) These application
descriptions will be distributed to tool presenters prior to the
laboratory in order to help them address these specific concerns.

OpenMP compiler and tool implementers are invited to submit a two-page
participation proposal giving a brief summary of the key functionalities
of their tool(s) and describing how they can assist in the development,
porting, and/or tuning process. In addition, these proposals should
discuss expected hardware/software support and any additional requirements.
For the OMPlab instructions in the use of their tools (e.g. quick
reference guide, user manual) are required in order to ensure a
high-quality hands-on laboratory experience. To guide application
participants' expectations, two-page proposals for tools accepted for
presentation will be posted on the IWOMP web site.

About OpenMP:

OpenMP is an Application Programming Interface (API) widely accepted as
a standard for high-level shared-memory parallel programming. OpenMP is
a portable, scalable programming model that provides a simple and
flexible interface for developing shared-memory parallel applications in
Fortran, C, and C++. Since its introduction in 1997, OpenMP has gained
support from the majority of high-performance compiler and hardware vendors.
There is also active research in OpenMP compilers, runtime systems,
tools, and environments. Under the direction of the OpenMP Architecture
Review Board (ARB), the OpenMP standard continues to evolve. The
community of OpenMP researchers and developers in academia and
industry is organized under cOMPunity, a forum for the dissemination and
exchange of information about and experiences with OpenMP.
