Fall 2007 Parallel Reading Group

ASC 2 MASC parallel computing

Focus

This is a continuation of the summer reading group. The focus of this reading group is on sharing papers relevant to the participants own research through reading and discussing the chosen publications.  It is intended to serve as a forum of growth and education in multiple areas of parallel research, including the ASC / MASC associative SIMD models, multiple other parallel models, hardware, algorithms, and bioinformatics sequence alignment.

Meetings are generally weekly, unless there is a scheduling conflict.
