Announcing the IWOMP 2022 CFP
 The International Workshop on OpenMP (IWOMP) is the annual workshop dedicated to the promotion and advancement of all aspects of parallel programming with the OpenMP API.
IWOMP 2022 will be hosted by the University of Tennessee, Chattanooga in the US and will be colocated with EuroMPI 2022. We solicit quality submissions of unpublished technical papers that detail innovative, original research and development related to OpenMP programming and its use in applications.
Submission deadline: May 13, 2022

Join the ECP OpenMP Virtual Hackathon 2022
 In this OpenMP virtual hackathon, developers and application teams will use the latest OpenMP API functionality to accelerate their code with the use of GPUs to target multiple platforms.
This event is organized by Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL) in conjunction with three other national labs (ANL, ORNL, and LLNL), and it is sponsored by the Exascale Computing Project (ECP), and driven by the ECP SOLLVE Project.
You can contact Dossay Oryspayev at if you would like to join the hackathon, even if the deadline date on the website may have passed.
Event date: April 8–13.

Webinar on porting large-scale materials science codes to GPUs
 Join us on April 20 for a webinar on the BerkeleyGW Case Study. BerkeleyGW is a massively parallel software package employed to study the excited state properties of electrons in materials by using GW, Bethe-Salpeter Equation (BSE) methods, and more. In this case study, BerkeleyGW was ported to three different GPU programming models with various GPU vendor architectures.
Presented by Mauro Del Ben of Lawrence Berkeley National Lab.
Date/Time: April 20 at 11:00am EDT | 15:00 UTC

Online study of parallel programmers
 Do you have experience in parallel programming in C using OpenMP 4.0 directives?
If so, then you can help a computer science PhD student by participating in an online study on mental representations of parallel programmers. Understanding these representations is important for developing programming languages and tools that enhance and assist programmers.
Depending on where you live, you may receive a CAD $10 gift card for your time. The study takes approximately 60 minutes and needs to be completed on a desktop or laptop computer (not a handheld device).
For more information please contact the principal investigator: Leah Bidlake ([email protected]). This project has been reviewed by the Research Ethics Board of the University of New Brunswick and is on file as REB#2021-014.

Seminar: OpenMP 5.x and Beyond
 The full performance of contemporary HPC systems can only be achieved if all levels of parallelism within the node are exploited: from multiple sockets and cores, over vector and acceleration units, to the memory hierarchy.
This 1-hour talk from Christian Terboven, "OpenMP 5.x and Beyond: Node-Level Parallel Programming in the Exascale Era," examines the research activities of RWTH’s HPC group and the resulting extensions incorporated into standards and tools, such as the OpenMP API. We will also review closely related topics such as the tool-supported correctness analysis of parallel programs.
Date/Time: March 28 at 3:00pm CEST | 13:00 UTC
