Trollius and the Transputer Workshop April 11-13, 1989 presented by Advanced Computing Facility / Cornell Theory Center The Advanced Computing Facility of the Cornell Theory Center is offering a three-day workshop on Trollius and the transputer April 11-13, 1989, at the Center's CNSF Training Facility in Ithaca, NY. Trollius, the distributed operating system designed by the ACF, will be discussed along with information on the transputer, the primary processor on which Trollius runs. The Workshop focuses on two areas. For those interested in details about the Trollius operating system, an internals sessions will be presented. For those interested in applications, concurrent workshops will provide the opportunity to use Trollius on ACF computing resources, and to discuss and design personal applications. In additions, Inmos, the company which designed the transputer, will host a session describing the transputer (particularly the T-800) and the Inmos family of transputer chips. The ACF's NiCHE NT-1000 16 node transputer system and Topologix T-1000 4-node transputer system will be used by workshop participants. Sessions include: Introduction to Trollius Introduction to application programming Trollius Applications Trollius Internals Trollius Porting The Inmos transputer The workshop begins at 9am on Tuesday, April 11, and adjourns by 4pm on Thursday, April 13. Registration: To apply for this workshop, please send your name and address to beers@tcgould.tn.cornell.edu, or jrb@cornellf.bitnet. Registration is limited to 20. The registration fee is $30, which includes course materials and refreshments at breaks. Deadline is March 24.

Trollius Workshop Cornell Theory Center Cornell University Ithaca, NY July 24 - 26, 1990 The Advanced Computing Research Institute (ACRI) of the Cornell Theory Center will be offering a three-day workshop on the Trollius programming environment for distributed-memory multicomputers. Attendees will learn how to program and monitor parallel applications under Trollius. In addition, sessions will be offered on the design of the Trollius operating system, on use of special programming tools, and on porting Trollius. Guest speakers from industry will discuss related development projects. Attendees will gain hands-on experience with the ACRI's transputer-based multi- computers, and will be given an opportunity to work on individual application programs. Attendees who are committed to using Trollius for existing projects are invited to remain through July 27, for in-depth consulting. Attendees should have previous experience with UNIX systems, and in programming with C or FORTRAN. Previous experience in parallel programming is not required. The workshop will begin at 9:00 am on Tuesday, July 24 and end by 4:30 pm on Thursday, July 26.
