I've been on hiatus from conferences for several months. So, my first order of business is to clean up old posts and comments.
1. HPCSW Presentations are on line. There is a lot of discussion about how hard it is to program more cores. I still can't get the statement that several people made there, which was "I really want flat coherent memory." In another post, I need to highlight some of those requests and responses.

2. RSSI is this week... I'm not there, but another of our intrepid correspondents will be.
