Collaboration between BSC-UPC and AC-UM has been settled in order to propose extensions to current programming models to target different types of accelerators, including GPUs, Cell-like architectures and FPGAs.

Two researchers of the AC-UM group and one from BSC-UPC made a stay of 4 months at IBM T.J. Watson Lab. in NY, USA, working on topics related with productive programming models (such as UPC) alternative to MPI for massive parallel architectures. Collaboration between BSC-UPC and AC-UM is foreseen in this topic.
