Multicore Programming Summer School @ U Illinois June 22-26

Programmers with little or no exposure to parallelism have an
opportunity to learn about multicore programming at the UPCRC
Illinois Summer School to be held June 22-26, 2009 at the
University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.

Coursework will provide a solid foundation in the fundamentals of
multicore programming, offer hands-on experience with the use of
multicore languages and libraries, and introduce emerging research
topics. Upon completion, participants will be familiar with
available tools, languages, and libraries that can be used to
develop parallel programs, the pros and cons of those utilities,
and will be able to choose the programming environment that best
matches their application needs.

Prerequisites for the summer school are: a solid understanding and
experience with programming and an interest in applying multicore
programming to current/future academic or professional pursuits.

Applicants can choose to attend on campus at the Thomas M. Siebel
Center for Computer Science or online as a virtual student.
Discounted rates for academic faculty, staff, and students are
available.
