Supercomputing workshop tours USA and Europe

Mitrionics and Silicon Graphics are running a joint FPGA supercomputing workshop summer tour, taking in venues around Europe and the USA.

Mitrionics and Silicon Graphics are running a joint FPGA supercomputing workshop summer tour, starting in Paris, France, on 23rd and 24th May 2006.

During the months of May, June and July, SGI and Mitrionics will host a series of workshops in the USA and Europe for scientists, researchers and software developers to receive hands-on training in the software-centric Mitrion-C programming language for FPGAs.

The workshops are free of charge and will cover a broad range of introductory-to-advanced topics designed to provide delegates with both a theoretical and working knowledge of how to develop and implement FPGA supercomputing applications using the SGI RASC RC100 computation blade and the Mitrion Platform.

The agenda includes topics such as: "Programming the SGI RASC with Mitrion-C", "Mitrion-C background quick walkthrough: a RASC program", and "Getting to know the Mitrion SDK and programming in Mitrion-C".

Tutors at the workshops are senior development and supercomputing professionals from both SGI and Mitrionics.
