DASH 2017 - Tutorial on Parallel Programming with DASH

Tutorial on Parallel Programming with DASH
at HiPEAC 2017,
the premier European forum for experts in computer
architecture, programming models, compilers and
operating systems for embedded and
general-purpose systems.
Stockholm, Sweden, January 23-25
===
Overview:
The tutorial provides an introduction to programming parallel systems
with DASH, a C++ template library that offers distributed data
structures and parallel algorithms and realizes the PGAS (partitioned
global address space) concept without requiring a custom compiler.
DASH is available as a free open-source library on GitHub
(http://www.github.com/dash-project/dash). Details on DASH can also be
found on the project webpage (http://www.dash-project.org).
The tutorial will start by setting DASH in relation to existing
solutions for parallel programming and then provides an overview of
the DASH programming environment. As a use case scenario, a large
image analysis workflow from astronomy will be discussed in detail.
Date and Location:
- Location: Room 23-AT-Waterfront Congress Centre, Stockholm, Sweden
- Date and time: Tue January 24, 2017, 14:00--17:30
Tentative Schedule:
