Abstract |
 |
|
The aim of these workshops is to give people who already have
some programming experience an introduction into the basics of
parallel programming.
The focus is on programming models, MPI, OpenMP and HPF,
domain decomposition, load balancing and parallel numerics.
Language support is given for Fortran, C and C++.
The course was developed by
HLRS,
EPCC (MPI-1),
NIC and
ZHR (VAMPIR).
Hands-on sessions will allow users to immediately test and
understand what the basic constructs of MPI, HPF and OpenMP are meant to do.
Message Passing with MPI is the major programming model on
large distributed-memory systems in high-performance computing.
HPF is a programming model suitable for data-parallel
problems.
OpenMP is dedicated to shared memory systems.
The workshops in fall 2001 are given with different focus:
| Course A:
| Sept. 17-21,
| Stuttgart,
| HLRS
|
| MPI and OpenMP for beginners and advanced topics in parallel programming (in German)
|
| Course B:
| Oct. 15-19,
| Stuttgart,
| HLRS
|
| MPI and OpenMP for beginners and advanced topics in parallel programming (in English)
|
| Course HPF:
| Oct. 12,
| Stuttgart,
| HLRS
|
| HPF for beginners (in German)
|
| Further courses:
see end of this page
|
The course language is German (except the course
Oct. 15-19 at HLRS, which is in English).
All slides and course materials are in English.
