Day 1: Monday
Tutorials
9:00-10:30	2405	Charm++ Tutorial Abhinav Bhatele, Chao Mei and Aaron Becker This tutorial will give a basic introduction to Charm++. It will cover basic virtualization concepts, proxies and basic uses of arrays.	ppt	wmv
10:45-12:15	2405	AMPI Tutorial Celso Mendes This tutorial will give a basic introduction to AMPI, our adaptive version of MPI on top of Charm++. Some familiarity with MPI is assumed. It will cover the major differences between MPI and AMPI, and discuss threadsafety issues like global variables.	ppt	wmv
1:30-3:00pm	2405	Communication Optimization Framework Tutorial Filippo Gioachin This tutorial introduces the communication optimization framework built into Charm++. The framework optimizes collective communictation operations. It also includes a learning framework which learns the communication patterns of an application and uses known strategies to optimize those patterns.	pdf	wmv
3:15-5:00pm	2405	ParFUM Tutorial Isaac Dooley A basic introduction to the Parallel Framework for Unstructured Meshes(ParFUM). It will cover the concepts and major functions of the framework, and show how to convert a serial unstructured mesh program into a parallel ParFUM program running in the framework	ppt	wmv
