Luis W. Alvarez Fellowship

The Computational Research Division and the National Energy Research

Scientific Computing Center (NERSC) at the U.S. Department of Energy's

Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory invite applicants for the Luis W.

Alvarez Fellowship in Computational Science.  The fellowship allows

recent graduates with a Ph.D. (or equivalent) to acquire further

scientific training at one of the leading facilities for scientific

computing and to develop professional maturity for independent research.

Accelerator-based computing and Manycore

         Many-core and Accelerator-based Computing for Physics and Astronomy Applications

NOTICE CHANGE OF VENUE

SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory/ Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, Berkeley CA, USA
November 30 – December 2, 2009

SLAC, NERSC, LBNL and UC Berkeley announce an international workshop on the role of emerging many-core architectures in science and technology. The focus of the workshop is to usher experts and enthusiasts from disparate backgrounds in academia and industry to introduce, explore and discuss the scope and challenges of harnessing the full potential of these novel architectures for high performance computing specially in Physics and Astronomy applications. The developed solutions will have broader impact across science and technology disciplines such as healthcare, energy, aerospace etc. The emerging new techniques open a route for future generations of hardware and software using silicon and electrical power much more efficiently, a necessity on the path to Exaflop/s.
