OBJECTIVE AND SCOPE

The importance of multithreaded execution to both the high-end and mainstream computing industries is rapidly increasing. The focus of this workshop is on multithreading execution techniques and systems, including architecture design and implementation, compilation techniques, system and language support and performance evaluation.
