There is now a CONTENT FREEZE for Mercury while we switch to a new platform. It began on Friday, March 10 at 6pm and will end on Wednesday, March 15 at noon. No new content can be created during this time, but all material in the system as of the beginning of the freeze will be migrated to the new platform, including users and groups. Functionally the new site is identical to the old one. webteam@gatech.edu

Kamesh Madduri won the best poster award in the Ph. D. Forum at the22nd IEEE International Parallel and Distributed Processing Symposium(IPDPS) held April 14-18 in Miami. Madduri's research in computationalscience and high-performance computing beat out 72 other submissions towin one of two prizes in the competition.
The main track of IPDPS is highly competitive and contains peer-reviewed papers submitted from researchers worldwide. Only 105 of the submitted 410 papers were accepted for presentation. As a testament to Georgia Tech's strength in parallel and multicore computing, four papers from Computational Science and Engineering division were presented as regular papers:
IPDPS attracts over 600 of the top scientific researchers in the field for a week packed with technical talks and demonstrations. In 2009, the meeting will be held in Rome, Italy, and in 2010, David Bader (CSE) will serve as the General Chair when the symposium comes to Atlanta.
