SUMMER WORKSHOP IN PARALLEL COMPUTATION
UNIVERSITY OF COLORADO
(Preliminary Announcement)
The Department of Computer Science and the Academic Comput-
ing Center will hold a two-week Workshop in Parallel Compu-
tation on the campus of the University of Colorado from 15
June 1987 to 26 June 1987. The Workshop will consist of
lectures by leading experts in parallel computation and
laboratory work on local memory and shared memory multipro-
cessors. The tentative list of speakers includes Jim Browne
(U. Texas), Oliver McBryan (Courant Institute), James McGraw
(Livermore), Cleve Moler (Intel), David Waltz (Thinking
Machines), Harry Jordan (U. Colorado), Gary Nutt (U.
Colorado), Bobby Schnabel (U. Colorado). Lectures will
cover a broad range of topics including languages, architec-
tures, numerical and non-numerical applications. The
Workshop is intended for graduate students and recent PhD's
in computer science. It is expected that these participants
will bring with them a project to be worked on during the
laboratory sessions.
Participants may receive a stipend of approximately $500,
the exact amount depending on the estimated costs of the
workshop to the participant and his or her need for support.
The selection of participants will depend on the following
criteria: brief statement of research activities and
interests; two letters of recommendation; transcript of
grades; and, description of parallel computation project for
the Workshop.
Inquiries should be addressed to:
