EuroPVM/MPI 2004

11th European PVM/MPI Users' Group Meeting in conjunction with DAPSYS'04

Budapest, Hungary
September 19-22, 2004





PVM (Parallel Virtual Machine) and MPI (Message Passing Interface) are the most frequently used tools for parallel programming according to the message-passing paradigm. The meeting is dedicated to the latest developments of PVM and MPI and their applications.

This is the 11th EuroPVM/MPI meeting of the series, previous ones being held at
    1994: University of Rome, Italy
    1995: ENS Lyon, France
    1996: TU Muenchen, Germany
    1997: Institute of Computer Science & ACC CYFRONET, Krakow, Poland
    1998: University of Liverpool, United Kingdom
    1999: Universitat Autonoma de Barcelona, Spain
    2000: Balatonfuered, Lake Balaton, Hungary
    2001: Santorini Island, Greece
    2002: Joh. Kepler University Linz, Austria
    2003: Venice, Italy


Proceedings have been published in the Springer Lecture Notes in Computer Science series and are available as follows :

The 11th European PVM/MPI Users’ Group conference will be a forum for the users and developers of PVM, MPI, and other message-passing programming environments. They will have the opportunity to meet each other, share ideas and experiences, and meet members of the PVM and MPI teams. Main topics of the meeting will be
  • Algorithms using the message-passing paradigm
  • Applications in science and engineering (based on message-passing)
  • Latest extensions and improvements to PVM and MPI
  • PVM/MPI in clusters and grid environments
  • Performance evaluation of PVM and MPI
  • Tools and environments for PVM and MPI
  • PVM/MPI implementation issues and extensions
  • Novel message-passing paradigms for grids and P2P


The 11th EuroPVM/MPI conference will be jointly organized with the 5th Austrian-Hungarian Workshop on Distributed and Parallel Systems (DAPSYS) in Budapest, Hungary. Participants of the two events will share invited talks, tutorials, vendor sessions, and social events, while contributed paper presentations will go on in separate tracks in parallel.

While EuroPVM/MPI is dedicated to the latest developments of PVM and MPI, DAPSYS is expected to be a major event to discuss general aspects of parallel and distributed systems. In this way the two events are complement to each other and participants of the 11th EuroPVM/MPI conference can benefit from the joint organization of the two events.

CONFERENCE VENUE:

The conference is organized in the capitol city of Hungary, Budapest, which actually consists of two parts, Buda and Pest, separated by the Danube River. Each side is unique in itself but complementary to the other. To the city's west is hilly Buda vaunting an enchanting Historic District at its heart. To the east is the vast and relatively flat Pest, imbued with an historic pride rooted in trade and commerce.

To truly experience Buda is to walk the historic streets. The city's Medieval, Baroque and Classical flourishes, the various monuments - damaged during World War II - have been meticulously restored. Pest, thanks to its level terrain and spacious area, is home to numerous museums that house the nation's greatest art and historical collections. Add to this Pest's somewhat cutting edge interest in the arts, and you have an exciting and oh, so contemporary, city - a superb complement to her more old fashioned partner Buda, just across the Danube.
