LESSTR: LESS Technical Reading Group

Spring 2000

Schedule Participants

Time:Thursdays 1:30 to 2:30.
Place:CS Lounge, Taylor 3.128.
Email: lesstr@cs.utexas.edu

For the Spring 2000 semester, we will read and discuss papers related to the recently proposed TRIPS project. This project proposes a design for a Trillion Instruction Per Second microprocessor and explores the impact that such a machine will have on all aspects of system design, including languages, operating systems, fault tolerance, etc.

Schedule

This schedule is subject to change to coordinate with with faculty recruiting.
