Intel Multi-Core Programming for Academia
Workshop
May 22-24, 2007

Introduction

High performance CPUs are expanding from single-processor engines to ones that will have multiple cores. Intel is working with leading universities worldwide to prepare software developers for a new paradigm of software development that supports these new multi-core processors. In this context, Intel provides a Multi-Core Workshop for Academia in cooperation with the Chair for Operating Systems and the Center for Computing and Communication at the RWTH Aachen University. This workshop will be part of Intel's Multi-Core Curriculum Initiative.

You may find a complete list of hotels on the web pages of the Aachen Tourist Service.
We recommend the "Aachen Best Western Regence" hotel. It is a nice hotel with reasonable prices at a walking distance (30-45 minutes) to the computer center through the old city of Aachen.

Please download a sketch of the city (pdf, 415 KB) with some points of interest marked.

You may find a description of how to reach the workshop location by plane, train or car here.

Bus route 33 connects the city and the stop "Mies-van-der-Rohe-Straße" every 15 minutes. Trains between Aachen and Düsseldorf stop at "Aachen West" station which is a 5 minutes walk away from the Center for Computing and Communication. From the bus stop and the train station just walk uphill the "Seffenter Weg". The first building on the left hand side at the junction with "Kopernikusstraße" is the Computing Center.
