Hi Chapel Community -- As SC14 gets closer, we wanted to make you aware of a number of Chapel-related events that will be taking place at the conference.
First, a quick reminder that if you have Chapel-related work that you'd like to highlight as part of the Chapel Lightning Talks BoF at SC14, those proposals are due at the end of this week. Details regarding the BoF and proposal process can be found at: http://chapel.cray.com/SC-BoF-LT.html Details and coordinates for all Chapel-related SC14 events can be found on the Chapel website at: http://chapel.cray.com/events.html Here's a conversational rundown: * Chapel Tutorial: SC14 will kick off with a half-day Chapel tutorial on Sunday morning. If you or your colleagues would like training in Chapel, this is the place to be. We'll be taking a new approach this year, using sample computations to drive the introduction of Chapel concepts rather than simply walking through the language's feature set. * Exhibition Floor: throughout the week, when the exhibition floor is open, we'll have a spot in the Emerging Technologies booth where you can stop by and hear about our ongoing work to support user-defined Hierarchical Locale Models in Chapel, or anything else you might be interested in. This is the default place to come find us during the week if you want to talk Chapel between other events. * Chapel Lightning Talks BoF: In the Tuesday lunchtime BoF slot, we'll be holding our annual lightning talks BoF, highlighting Chapel-related work being undertaken by members of the broad community via short 5-minute talks followed by a group Q&A session. * Chapel Poster: Ian Bertolacci (Colorado State University) will be presenting a poster on Tuesday evening, showing results from work he's been undertaking studying the abstraction of interesting tiling patterns using Chapel iterators. * Chapel Users Group BoF: On Wednesday evening, we'll be doing a BoF designed to serve as a forum for users of Chapel (current and potential). The BoF will start with a very brief introduction to Chapel and a rundown of recent Chapel events before opening the floor up to questions about Chapel and discussion about its future. * CHUG Happy Hour: On Wednesday evening after the Chapel Users Group BoF, we'll be having our 5th Annual CHUG Happy Hour at Mulate's -- the same place where we kicked off the inaugural event in 2010. Come join us! * LLVM, Locality for Exascale, and PGAS BoFs: In addition to the Chapel-oriented BoFs above, the language will be represented during the week by members of the community at three other BoFs being organized by external groups. If you are aware of other Chapel-oriented events that should be added to this list, please let us know. We hope to see and meet many of you at SC14 this year! -Brad Chamberlain (on behalf of the Chapel team) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Slashdot TV.
