 === FastFlow ===
-FastFlow is a C++ skeleton programming framework targeting shared memory architectures. It will be used within the course as one of the reference programming environments. A chapter detailing FastFlow usage (kind of "handson" gentle introduction") will be included in the Course notes. FastFlow online documentation is available at the [[http://calvados.di.unipi.it/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=ffnamespace:about|FastFlow home page]]. The current version of the programming framework may be downloaded from [[http://sourceforge.net/projects/mc-fastflow/|sourceforge]].

The current version of the programming framework may be downloaded from [[http://sourceforge.net/projects/mc-fastflow/|sourceforge]] (follow tab "Develop". You'll find here the command needed to checkout the last version from the sourceforge SVN, which is usually more up to date than the version provided through tar.gz files from the same web site.
+Once downloaded, please consider issuing quite often an "svn update" from the FastFlow download directory to update last changes.
+== Sample programs ==
 Sample programs used to introduce the programming framework:
   * HelloWorld with [[ffhwpipe|pipelines]]
@@ Linea 44: / Linea 51: @@
   * Sample [[fffarms|farms]]
+== Tutorial ==
 A tutorial discussing how to use FastFlow has been prepared as part of the course notes. The PDF of this appendix to the course notes is available [[http://backus.di.unipi.it/~marcod/SPM1112/ff_tut.pdf|here]].
+== MISD skeleton (draft) ==
+During the course lessons, we showed how the farm template in FastFlow may be specialized to implement other skeletons. In particular we we discussed a MISD (Multiple Instruction Single Data) skeleton, processing each item of the input stream by //n// different functions and returning a tuple with the //n// results computed. The FastFlow code for this skeleton is shown in the code on this [[http://backus.di.unipi.it/~marcod/PhD12/ff_misd_allgather.cpp|link]].
+== Using SkePu to support GPUs ==
 Sample FastFlow using a SkePU map stage is shown [[http://didawiki.cli.di.unipi.it/doku.php/magistraleinformaticanetworking/spm/skepu_ff|here]].
-The experimental version targeting clusters and presented in the lesson of M. Torqauti is available [[http://backus.di.unipi.it/~marcod/SPM1112/fastflow_dnode.tgz|here]].
+== Targeting COW/NOW ==
+The original experimental version targeting clusters and presented in the lesson of M. Torquati has been included in the version available through the sourceforge SVN [[http://sourceforge.net/projects/mc-fastflow/develop|sourceforge SVN]].
