IBM CELL PROGRAMMING WORKSHOP
Friday, May 25, 2007
8:30am-5:00pm
Atkinson Hall 5302 (5th floor, just past reception)

VIDEO IS NOW ONLINE! (6/27/07) http://crca.ucsd.edu/cellworkshop/

Cell Broadband Engine (Cell/B.E.) is an innovative solution whose design was based on the analysis of a broad range of workloads in areas such as cryptography, graphics transform and lighting, physics, fast-Fourier transforms (FFT), matrix operations, and scientific workloads. This is a hands-on workshop aimed at providing a jump start to Cell/B.E. programming, starting with an overview and architectural details, covering the programmability concepts and code optimization techniques to exploit good performance results, tools, techniques, and development environment, with some code examples.

REGISTRATION:

The event is FREE but registration is REQUIRED. Please contact Helena Bristow (bristow@ucsd.edu)
DEADLINE EXTENDED: Please register by 12 noon THURSDAY, MAY 24 to reserve your place in the workshop.
