Abstract

Microprocessor performance can no longer be greatly improved by simply increasing clock frequencies; instead, higher performance will have to come from parallelism. As multi/manycore processors with multiple CPUs on a chip become standard and affordable for everyone, software engineers face the challenge of parallelizing applications of all sorts. However, compared to sequential applications, our repertoire of tools and methods for cost-effectively developing reliable, parallel applications is spotty. The mission 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. This is the second in a series of workshops specifically focusing on software engineering challenges of multi/manycore.
