Workshop on OpenMP Applications and Tools May 17-20, 2004 Houston, Texas
----------------------------------------------------------------------------


IMPORTANT DATES:
Workshop: May 17-18, 2004
OpenMP lab: May 19 - 20, 2004
Final papers due: May 4, 2004
Submission of lab proposals: continuous submission


ABOUT THE WORKSHOP:

The OpenMP API is a widely accepted standard for high-level shared-memory parallel
programming. Since its introduction in 1997, OpenMP has gained support from the
majority of high-performance compiler and hardware vendors.

WOMPAT 2004 is the latest in a series of workshops on topics related to OpenMP that
take place at locations in North America. Previous events in this series were held
at Toronto (Canada), Fairbanks (Alaska), Purdue (Indiana) and San Diego (California).
OpenMP workshops are also held annually in Europe (EWOMP) and Asia (WOMPEI).
Additional information about these previous workshops can be found through the
cOMPunity web site at http://www.compunity.org.

The Workshop on OpenMP Applications and Tools (WOMPAT 2004) will serve as a forum
for users and developers of OpenMP to meet, share ideas and experiences, and to
discuss the latest developments in OpenMP and its applications. WOMPAT 2004 is
co-sponsored by the OpenMP Architecture Review Board (ARB) and cOMPunity, a
community of researchers and developers in academia and industry. It is also
sponsored by The Portland Group, a division of ST, Inc.

ABOUT THE OMPLAB:
The workshop is augmented by a practical hands-on session, where participants will
be able to try out a variety of compilers and tools on their own codes. Vendors
participating in this lab include HP, Intel, IBM, ParaWise and Sun Microsystems.
Research tools include Dragon, OMNI, PAPI/KOJAK and TAU. Attendence at OMPLab may
be in conjunction with, or separate from, the WOMPAT workshop.

REGISTRATION AND ACCOMMODATION:
Registration is now open at the WOMPAT 2004 website. A limited number of rooms have
been reserved at the UH Hilton hotel, just a few minutes walk from the conference
rooms. Information on these is up at the website also.

WORKSHOP PAPERS:
The workshop proceedings will be published by Springer Verlag in their LNCS series.
Final papers are due on May 4.


LOCATION:

WOMPAT 2004 will be held on campus at the University of Houston, Houston, Texas, U.S.A.
Houston is served by two major airports. The conference takes place on level 2 of
Philip G. Hoffman Hall (PGH). Directions from the regional airports to the university
