PPoPP 11 Proceedings of the 2011 ACM SIGPLAN Symposium on Principles and Practice of Parallel Programming

It is our great pleasure to welcome you to the 16th ACM Symposium on Principles and Practice of Parallel Programming -- PPoPP'11. PPoPP continues to be the premiere forum where researchers present their work on all aspects of parallelism and concurrency: algorithms and applications, programming models, languages, and environments, system software and runtime systems, and theoretical foundational work. As our industry continues to move toward parallel systems, from large-scale supercomputers to multicore mobile devices, such as smart phones and tablets, research work on concurrency is needed to support developers at all levels of the execution stack.
