HPC training, UVT

27 Sep 2012, 09:00 → 28 Sep 2012, 16:00 Europe/Bucharest

045C (West University of Timisoara)

Thursday, 27 September

09:00 → 16:00 HPC Training, UVT

The aim of the training is to offer the knowledge and to acquire practical skills for HPC.

Agenda:

Introduction to parallel processing and parallel processors: where does MPI fit into the landscape? Concepts of batch running and scheduling: PBS/Torque scheduler. Practical work (C or Fortran): simple MPI programs.
Point-Point Communication (blocking). Timing programs (and its pitfalls). Practical work (C or Fortran): point-point communication.
Blocking versus non-blocking Point-Point. Collective Communication & Reductions.  Practical work (C or Fortran): collective communication. Various parallel libraries.
Cartesian Topologies. Practical work (C or Fortran): topologies. User-defined MPI types and operators.  Practical work on these.

Convener: Dr James Davenport (University of Bath, UK)
