Title: Message from the IWPAPS 2008 Workshop Chair
Abstract: We have been given very clear signal from the numbers and quality of the papers submitted to this workshop. It is clear that the multi-core processor based parallel computing and its related parallel algorithm design and parallel software development have attracted increasing enthusiastic researchers from diversified backgrounds, including computer sciences, computational mathematics, astronomical observatory and communication. It is necessary for this community to gather regularly to present their research achievements, to exchange ideas, and to find collaborative opportunities for future development. We sincerely hope that IWPAPS 2008 will be the first in a series of many such technical meetings and we wish the community to continuously be involved in organizing and participating in future IWPAPS events. This year IWPAPS 2008 is held in conjunction with the 10 th IEEE International Conference on High Performance Computing and Communications (HPCC 2008). We received 20 submissions overall, out of which 11 are accepted as regular papers and 3 are accepted as short papers to be presented in the workshop. The submissions came from three different countries and reflect the value of the workshop as an international technical event. The quality of the submissions is excellent. We are also pleased to see the broad range of subjects addressed by the submissions as being covered by the workshop interests. It is a challenge to organize such an international workshop under a tight timeframe. Many people contributed their time and effort to the success of IWPAPS 2008. The Program Committee members and the referees deserve all the praise for providing timely and valuable reviews, and producing the excellent final program. We wish to thank the IWPAPS 2008 PC Chair, Yunquan Zhang, for coordinating and organizing the review process. We would also like to thank the Workshop Chairs of HPCC 2008 Organizing Committee for encouraging the submission of the proposal for this workshop. Finally, we appreciate IEEE Computer Society’s support of this workshop.
