It is a portable, scalable programming model that provides a simple and ?exible interface for - veloping shared-memory parallel applications in Fortran, C, and C++. Since its introduction in 1997, OpenMP has gained support from the majority of high-performance compiler and hardware vendors. Under the direction of the OpenMP Architecture Review Board (ARB), the OpenMP standard is being further improved. Active research in OpenMP compilers, runtime systems, tools, and environments continues to drive its evolution. To provide a forum for the d- semination and exchange of information about and experiences with OpenMP, the community of OpenMP researchers and developers in academia and industry is organized under cOMPunity (www. compunity. org). Workshops on OpenMP have taken place at a variety of venues around the world since 1999: the European Workshop on OpenMP (EWOMP), the North American Workshop on OpenMP Applications and Tools (WOMPAT), and the AsianWorkshoponOpenMP Experiences andImplementation (WOMPEI)were each held annually and attracted an audience from both academia and industry. The intended purpose of the new International Workshop on OpenMP (IWOMP) was to consolidate these three OpenMP workshops into a single, yearly inter- tional conference. The ?rst IWOMP meeting was held during June 1 4, 2005, in Eugene, Oregon, USA. The second meeting took place during June 12 15, in Reims, France."
