As an exciting new area of research, this event gives attendees the opportunity to interact with other scientists interested in exploring the possibilities of using reconfigurable computing to accelerate their software applications through the exchange of ideas and experiences. Co-sponsored by Cray and SGI, the symposium is free of charge and will be conducted in English. The event will feature speakers from Europe and the U.S. who will share their early experiences with this new platform as well as provide attendees the opportunity to talk with technical experts from manufacturers and vendors as well as researchers in the field about their experiences with using FPGAs to meet high application performance goals. The preliminary speaker list includes representatives from Xilinx, NASA, Ohio Supercomputer Center, Star Bridge Systems, Celoxica as well as senior technical officials from our sponsors. Registration for the free, limited-attendance event is available online at http://www.csar.cfs.ac.uk/fpga, by email to Kevin.Roy@manchester.ac.uk or by phoning Kevin Roy at 44-161-275-7031.
