Come for the workshop, stay for XSEDE12!

The annual Extreme Scaling Workshop is being held July 15-16, 2012, at the Radisson Hotel Chicago O'Hare in Des Plaines, Illinois (near O'Hare Airport).

This workshop will address algorithmic and applications challenges and solutions in large-scale computing systems with limited memory and I/O bandwidth. The presentations and discussions are intended to assist the computational science and engineering community in making effective use of petascale through extreme-scale systems, across the spectrum of local campus-scale systems to national systems.

The list of talks and presenters is posted on the workshop website: www.xsede.org/web/xscale/agenda.

Registration
A workshop fee of $125 helps cover the cost of meals, including lunch and dinner on Sunday, and breakfast and lunch on Monday, along with breaks each day. Register BY JUNE 5 to get in at the early-bird rate atwww.ncsa.illinois.edu/Conferences/ExtremeScaling/register.html.

This workshop is being offered in cooperation with ACM SIGHPC sighpc.org.
