International Workshop on Multicore Software Engineering (IWMSE08)

With the emergence of multicore computers, software engineers face the challenge of parallelizing performance-critical applications of all sorts. Compared to sequential applications, our repertoire of tools and methods for cost-effectively developing reliable, parallel applications is spotty. The purpose of this workshop is to bring together researchers and practitioners with diverse backgrounds in order to advance the state of the art in software engineering for multi/manycore parallel applications.
