Subject: Eighth Workshop on the DOE Advanced Computational Software Collection
Author: Jonathan Carter <jtcarter_at_lbl.gov>
Date: 2007-04-06 12:22:46
Eighth Workshop on the DOE Advanced Computational Software Collection Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, August 21-24, 2007 Building Blocks for Reliable and High Performing Computing http://acts.nersc.gov/events/Workshop2007 The DOE Advanced CompuTational Software (ACTS) Collection comprises a set of tools that aim at simplifying the solution of common and important computational problems. The tools have substantially benefited a wide range of scientific and industrial applications; these benefits are accounted not only by improving computational efficiency but also by enabling computation that would not have been possible otherwise. The four-day workshop will present an introduction to the ACTS Collection for application scientists whose research demands include either large amounts of computation, the use of robust numerical algorithms, or combinations of these. The workshop will include a range of tutorials on the tools currently available in the collection, discussion sessions aimed to solve specific computational needs by the workshop participants, and hands-on practices using NERSC's state-of-the-art computers. This workshop is opened to computational scientists from industry and academia. Registration fees are fully sponsored by the DOE's Office of Science. In addition, DOE will sponsor travel expenses and lodging for a limited number of graduate students and postdoctoral fellows. For more information on the workshop, please contact Tony Drummond at (510) 486-7624 or Osni Marques at (510) 486-5290.
