This is an incredible time to be a student in any area of computer science. There’s an unprecedented level of change and innovation occurring–in both hardware and software:
Tablets and mobile devices are exploding. User interfaces are becoming richer and more intuitive. Services are shifting from the desktop to the cloud. But all these trends are placing incredible demands on existing hardware and software platforms.

Heterogeneous computing is a new paradigm designed to help meet these demands. If you’ve heard of it, you’re ahead of the curve. If you haven’t, you need to catch up. Fast.

Want an edge on your peers when competing for an internship or a job? Then arm yourself with insight into heterogeneous computing, OpenCL, OpenGL, and C++ AMP.

Sound overwhelming?

Don’t worry–you can help boost your knowledge and skills in less than a week.
Attend the premier event on heterogeneous computing

AMD and others are pioneering the hardware and software platforms required to make heterogeneous computing a reality. And the momentum is building–fast. To help unite the industry and advance the skills required to take advantage of the new paradigm, AMD is hosting its second annual AMD Fusion12 Developer Summit (AFDS).

Held June 11-14, 2012 in Bellevue, Washington, AFDS provides an intense immersion into the world of heterogeneous computing and the impact it will have on a huge range of technology sectors.

Learn from the best in the industry

Want to know where this new paradigm is headed? We’ve secured some of today’s most visionary technologists to share their insights on how heterogeneous computing will affect areas like the cloud, multimedia and graphics, security, user interfaces, device capabilities, and more.

Plus, the event features nearly 100 intensive working sessions, premier demonstrations, and a chance to meet developers and representatives of the industry’s leading hardware and software companies.
