[mvapich-discuss] MVAPICH User Group (MUG) Meeting Program Finalized - Call for Participation

[Dhabaleswar Panda]

The first MVAPICH User Group (MUG) meeting will take place during August 
26-27, 2013 in Columbus, Ohio, USA. The MUG meeting will provide an open 
forum for all attendees (users, system administrators, researchers, 
engineers, and students) to discuss and share their knowledge on using 
MVAPICH2 and MVAPICH2-X, on large-scale systems and for a diverse set of 
applications.

The event includes a set of talks from experts in the field, presentations 
from the MVAPICH2 team on tuning and optimization strategies for various 
components, trouble shooting guidelines, contributed presentations, an 
open mic session, and an interactive/hands-on session with the MVAPICH2 
developers in a one-to-one manner to discuss issues and problems.

A copy of the advanced program is included below.

All interested parties are welcome to attend the event.
