A one day workshop on "Research Directions in the Principles of Parallel Computing" is scheduled on June 28, 2012 at Carnegie Mellon University (CMU) in Pittsburgh, PA. The workshop will bring together researchers from academia and industry to inform, discuss, and initiate collaborations on understanding the key research challenges in the foundations of parallel computing, and directions to possibly address these challenges. The emphasis of the workshop is on theoretical approaches to parallel computation and how to bridge these approaches with practice. It will be held the day after the ACM Symposium on Parallelism in Algorithms and Architectures (SPAA), which is to be held June 25-27, 2012 also at CMU. The workshop will address several issues described in NSF's Advanced Computing Infrastructure Strategic Plan including, but not limited to, computational models, programming languages, rethinking the canonical computing "stack" and new algorithmic paradigms. The workshop will consist of approximately 20 invited speakers who will be asked to present their thoughts on "what are three big research challenges in the principles of parallel computing". Attendance to the workshop is open to all students, faculty and industry researchers at no charge (as space permits). The output of the workshop will be a public report documenting the discussions. It is hoped this report and other interactions at the workshop will have broad impact on future directions of research in the theory and practice of parallel computation.

为期一天的研讨会“并行计算原理的研究方向”定于2012年6月28日在宾夕法尼亚州匹兹堡的卡内基梅隆大学（CMU）举行。 研讨会将汇集来自学术界和工业界的研究人员，就理解并行计算基础中的关键研究挑战以及可能应对这些挑战的方向进行通报，讨论和启动合作。 研讨会的重点是并行计算的理论方法，以及如何将这些方法与实践联系起来。 它将在2012年6月25日至27日在CMU举行的ACM算法和架构中的并行性研讨会（SPAA）的第二天举行。 该研讨会将解决NSF高级计算基础设施战略计划中描述的几个问题，包括但不限于计算模型，编程语言，重新思考规范计算“堆栈”和新的算法范式。 研讨会将由大约20名受邀演讲者组成，他们将被要求就“并行计算原理中的三大研究挑战”发表自己的想法。 出席研讨会是开放给所有学生，教师和行业研究人员免费（如空间允许）。 研讨会的成果将是一份公开报告，记录讨论情况。 我们希望这份报告和其他互动在研讨会上将有广泛的影响，在并行计算的理论和实践的未来研究方向。
