Material for the Dagstuhl seminar on hierarchical memories

This page contains links and preliminary material. The list of topics is still tentative, but it may be useful because it's mostly made up of Web resources.
Joint work with by Kay Salzwedel, Florin Isaila, Martin Schmollinger and Massimo Coppola
