==> 9th EuroPVM/MPI & 4th DAPSYS Conference <==

Johannes Kepler University Linz, Austria
September 29-October 02, 2002
http://www.gup.uni-linz.ac.at/pvmmpi or http://www.gup.uni-linz.ac.at/dapsys

The 9th EuroPVM/MPI conference will be jointly organized with the 4th
Austrian-Hungarian Workshop on Distributed and Parallel Systems (DAPSYS) at
the Johannes Kepler University Linz. Participants of the two events will
share invited talks, tutorials, vendor sessions, and social events, while
contributed paper presentations will go on in separate tracks in parallel.

While EuroPVM/MPI is dedicated to the latest developments of PVM and MPI,
DAPSYS is expected to be a major event to discuss general aspects of
parallel and distributed systems. In this way the two events are complement
to each other and participants of the 9th EuroPVM/MPI conference can benefit
from the joint organization of the two events.

More details about these two events can be found at
