TRANSPUTING '91 - Papers, Tutorials and Registration Details
TRANSPUTING '91
The World's Leading Conference on Multiprocessing
22 - 26 April 1991
Sunnyvale Hilton Inn, California
Transputers are the revolutionary microprocessors for multiprocessing which
have outsold all other 32-bit RISC architectures. They are fuelling explosive
growth in science and engineering by extending the ability to solve complex
problems fast, elegantly and at reasonable cost.
Highlights of TRANSPUTING '91 will include :
* A COMPLETE TECHNICAL DISCLOSURE OF THE NEXT GENERATION INMOS H1 TRANSPUTER,
which will offer 150 MIPS and 20 MFLOPS peak performance, as well as
enhanced support for multiprocessing and interprocessor communications.
* Five invited speakers from the U.S.A., the U.K. and Japan.
* 67 contributed papers, fully-refereed and selected to present a wide range
of parallel processing techniques, applications and experiences.
* A wide ranging tutorial program which will be invaluable as an
introduction to multiprocessing hardware and software techniques, to
show how transputer technology may be used to support specific
application areas, and how transputers can play an important part in
the teaching of concurrency and parallelism.
* The opportunity to meet experienced transputer users drawn from
every continent, to discuss how multiprocessing can simplify the design
of your applications and how to get started.
* Exhibitors sponsoring the conference include SGS-THOMSON Microelectronics,
ESPRIT, Parsytec Inc., Paracom, Parasoft, Transtech Parallel Systems,
JMI Software Consultants, Inc., Yarc Systems Corporation, Distributed
Software Ltd, 3L Ltd., A.T. Barrett & Associates, Computer Systems
Architects, Benson Computer Research Corporation, Division Limited,
Mechanical Intelligence, Archipel S.A., with others to be confirmed.
Non-commercial demonstrations of transputer applications will also be
present.
TRANSPUTING '91 builds upon the previous successful meetings of the
many Transputer and Occam User Groups worldwide, and is being organized
by representatives of these Groups - the World Transputer User Group
Committee.
