*I think this may have some bearing on array processing languages... July 17 ACM Webcast: William Gropp and John West, "Changing How Programmers Think about Parallel Programming"* Register today for "Changing How Programmers Think about Parallel Programming,"<http://w.on24.com/r.htm?e=648832&s=1&k=E4D63ADDA6619EDE5EDAFFBAD261CE7B>presented by William Gropp, Director of the Parallel Computing Institute at the University of Illinois in Urbana-Champaign and a member of the SIGHPC Executive Committee. John West, Director of the Department of Defense High Performance Computing Modernization Program, and a fellow member of the SIGHPC Executive Committee, moderates.
Attendees will get an introduction to parallel execution models, focusing on how programmers think about writing programs. You will learn what an execution model is; the difference between an execution model, programming model, and programming system; how an execution model influences how a programmer thinks about implementing parallelism; and common parallel programming approaches and how they can lead to poor scalability. -- Skip Cave Cave Consulting LLC ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For information about J forums see http://www.jsoftware.com/forums.htm
