CALL FOR PARTICIPATION

International Workshop on
Multicore Software Engineering (IWMSE)
May 11, 2008, Leipzig, Germany

In conjunction with the 30th International Conference on 
Software Engineering (ICSE), May 10-18, 2008


PURPOSE
=======
With the emergence of multicore computers, software engineers face 
the challenge of parallelizing performance-critical applications of 
all sorts. Compared to sequential applications, our repertoire of 
tools and methods for cost-effectively developing reliable, parallel 
applications is spotty. The purpose of this workshop is to bring 
together researchers and practitioners with diverse backgrounds in 
order to advance the state of the art in software engineering for 
multi/manycore parallel applications.

KEYNOTE & PROGRAM
===================
Keynote Speaker: Ali-Reza Adl-Tabatabai, PhD
Senior Principal Engineer, Intel Programming Systems Lab
