Call For Papers: EuroMPI 2013 co-located Workshops
by Javier Garcia Blas 22 Feb '13

22 Feb '13

Dear Sir or Madam, (We apologize if you receive multiple copies of this message) ------------------------------------------------------------ Recent Advances in Message Passing Interface. 20th European MPI Users' Group Meeting (EuroMPI 2013) EuroMPI 2013 is being held in cooperation with SIGHPC Madrid, Spain, September 15-18, 2013 www.eurompi2013.org ================================================= WORKSHOPS ================================================= EuroMPI 2013 workshops are a major part of the EuroMPI week-long family of events. They provide the MPI community an opportunity to explore special topics, and the goal of the workshops is to present work that is more preliminary and cutting-edge or that has more practical content than the more mature research presented in the main conference. Proceedings of the workshops are published by the ACM Digital Library and are distributed at the conference. The workshops schedule by day will be announced when the full program of workshops is complete. IMUDI SPECIAL SESSION ON IMPROVING MPI USER AND DEVELOPER INTERACTION ===================================================================== The IMUDI special session, to be held as a full-day meeting at the EuroMPI 2013 conference in Madrid, Spain, focuses on bringing together the MPI end-user and MPI implementor communities through discussions on MPI usage experiences, techniques, and optimizations. This meeting will focus on evaluating the MPI standard from the perspective of the MPI end-user (application and library developers) and address concerns and insights of MPI implementors and vendors. Unlike workshops associated with other conferences, the IMUDI session is still considered to be a part of the Euro MPI conference. Submissions will be reviewed separately to facilitate bringing together research publications falling into these "special focus" areas. Important Dates --------------- Submission of full and short papers: March 29th, 2013. Author Notification: June 1st, 2013. Camera Ready papers due: June 15th, 2013. More info at: http://press.mcs.anl.gov/imudi/ E2HPC2 2013: ENERGY-EFFICIENT HIGH PERFORMANCE COMPUTING & COMMUNICATION WORKSHOP ================================================================================= The first Energy-Efficient High Performance Computing & Communication workshop will be co-located with EuroMPI 2013 in Madrid. Energy-awareness is now a main topic for HPC systems. The goal of this workshop is to discuss latest researches on the impact and possibles leverages of communications for such systems. E2HPC2 solicits original and non-published or under-review articles on the field of energy-aware communication in HPC environment. This workshop is co-located with EuroMPI as MPI is the main communication interface in those environments. Important Dates --------------- Submission of full papers: March 29th, 2013 Author notification: May 11th, 2013 Camera Ready papers due: June 15th, 2013 More info at: http://www.irit.fr/~Georges.Da-Costa/e2hpc2.html PBIO 2013: INTERNATIONAL WORKSHOP ON PARALLELISM IN BIOINFORMATICS ================================================================== In Bioinformatics, we can find a variety of problems which are affected by huge processing times and memory consumption, due to the large size of biological data sets and the inherent complexity of biological problems. In fact, Bioinformatics is one of the most exciting research areas in which Parallelism finds application. Successful examples are mpiBLAST or ClustalW-MPI, among many others. In conclusion, Bioinformatics allows and encourages the application of many different parallelism-based technologies. The focus of this workshop is on MPI-based approaches, but we welcome any technique based on: multicore and cluster computing, supercomputing, grid computing, cloud computing, hardware accelerators as GPUs, FPGAs, or Cell processors, etc. Important Dates --------------- Submission Deadline: March 29th, 2013 Acceptation Notification: May 11th, 2013 Camera-Ready Submission: June 15th, 2013 More info at: http://arco.unex.es/mavega/pbio2013/ ______________________________________________________________________________________________

Anyone know of a good InfiniBand vendor in the US?
by Landon Stewart 21 Feb '13

21 Feb '13

Hello NANOG, We are thinking of utilizing some InfiniBand stuff for some specific application in our data centres. We are new to InfiniBand however so we want to get some equipment and see if it does what we need. Does anyone know of a good vendor in the US? East or West coast, doesn't matter. If anyone has any good advice or information about InfiniBand that would be nice to hear too as we are totally new to it at present. -- Landon Stewart <LStewart(a)Superb.Net> Sr. Administrator Systems Engineering Superb Internet Corp - 888-354-6128 x 4199 Web hosting and more "Ahead of the Rest": http://www.superbhosting.net

The focus on platform here is ridiculous; can someone explain how platform of attacker or target is extremely relevant? Since when did people fail to see that we have plenty of inter-platform tools and services, and plenty of tools for either platform built with the express purpose of interaction with the other? Just because you learned to code/operate on/for/with/from a *nix doesn't mean that teams of Chinese coders can't make a tool that gets the job done on/for/with/from a Windows box. Many people write many softwares of diverse purpose and use for many platforms. Platform is, as far as I can tell, moot in this discussion. Feel free to enlighten me. Consider the US's indignation over the targeting of civillian or corporate intellectual property and the shifting of reality from preconceived expectation. I have had it explained to me as a purely ideological difference between the US and China. Simply put: just because we might find it immoral for state-sponsored espionage to feed stolen IP into the private sector, doesn't mean that China will feel the same; to some, it is perceived as nationalistic, another way the government helps to strengthen the nation. For another example of this, an acquaintance once told me about the process of getting internationally standardized technologies approved for deployment in China; the process that was described to me involved giving China the standards-based spec that had been drafted and approved, being told that for deployment, they would have to improve upon it in a laundry list of ways to bring it some 5-10 years ahead of the spec, and THEN it would be allowed to be deployed. Whenever you have enough new players, or the game goes on long enough, the rules end up changing.
