[Hari Subramoni]

Hello All,

The fourth annual MVAPICH User Group Meeting (MUG) will be held during
August 15-17, 2016 in Columbus, Ohio.  The MUG meeting provides an open
forum for all attendees (users, system administrators, researchers,
engineers, and students) to discuss and share their knowledge on using the
MVAPICH2 libraries (http://mvapich.cse.ohio-state.edu) on HPC clusters
(with InfiniBand, Omni-Path, iWARP and RoCE networking technologies) and a
diverse set of applications. The event will be held at the Ohio
Supercomputer Center.

A three-day event is planned. The event will include: tutorials from Intel,
NVIDIA and Mellanox focusing on their upcoming HPC and ExaScale
technologies; Keynote talks from CSCS, Switzerland Director and Mellanox
VP; invited talks from many organizations (LLNL, SDSC, PNNL, NVIDIA, Univ.
of Michigan, Inspur (China), Univ. of Cambridge (UK), Intel, Univ. of
Kyushu (Japan), Intel, Univ.  of Oregon, and Northwestern University); and
hands-on sessions from the TAU and MVAPICH teams.
