EuroCC@Greece announces the HPC Workshop “Large Scale Scientific Computations”, by the National Technical University of Athens (NTUA), on July 5-8 2022, at 10:00-16:00 PM (EET), which will be held on-site at the PC-Lab of NTUA ’s School of Chemical Engineering.
The workshop aims to introduce participants to large-scale calculations using parallel programming via training with hands-on examples. Moreover, special emphasis will be given to code parallelization, capable of utilizing clusters.
Target audience: postgraduate students and PhD candidates dealing with scientific calculations requiring processing speed and significant memory space
Workshop Location: NTUA School of Chemical Engineering (PC-Lab)
Participation cost: Free of charge
Language: Greek
The main topics of the Workshop are:
- the SPMD (Single Program Multiple Data) parallel programming model and how it is implemented using the communication protocol MPI (Message Passing Interface),
- the operation and architecture of GPUs (Graphics Processing Unit) as well as their use for large-scale computing through the parallel computing platform CUDA (Compute Unified Device Architecture) and
- the parallel programming with OpenMP which enables serial programs to be parallelized using compiler directives.
Prerequisites
- Familiarity with Linux
- Basics/principles of programming (C or FORTRAN is preferred).
Apply until June 17th here.
