VSC Training Courses: Parallel programming with MPI, OpenMP, and Hybrid Programming in HPC

Want to boost your computer simulations by writing parallel code that runs efficiently on modern compute clusters? Join in for our courses in English and learn about parallel programming for high-performance computing (HPC) systems.

This spring we offer three courses to help you boost your computer simulations.

On clusters and distributed memory architectures, parallel programming with the Message Passing Interface (MPI) is the dominating programming model. What is more, multicore (shared memory) CPUs, which are most easily and efficiently programmed using OpenMP, can be found basically anywhere. Nowadays most HPC systems are clusters of shared memory nodes and parallel programming may combine the distributed memory parallelization on the node interconnect (e.g., with the Message Passing Interface - MPI) with the shared memory parallelization inside of each node (e.g., with OpenMP or MPI-3.0 shared memory).

All our courses start from a beginner’s level and lots of hands-on sessions (in C and Fortran) will allow users to immediately test and understand the basic concepts of parallel programming.

The courses are organized by the <link http: vsc.ac.at training _blank>Vienna Scientific Cluster (VSC) at TU Wien in cooperation with the <link http: www.hlrs.de training _blank>High-Performance Computing-Center Stuttgart (HLRS).
