Parallel Programming with MPI, OpenMP, and Tools
Overview
The focus is on programming models MPI and OpenMP. Hands-on sessions (in C and Fortran) will allow users to immediately test and understand the basic constructs of the Message Passing Interface (MPI) and the shared memory directives of OpenMP. The last part is dedicated to tools. This course provides scientific training in Computational Science, and in addition, the scientific exchange of the participants among themselves. It is organized by ZIH in cooperation with HLRS. (Content Level: 70% for beginners, 30% advanced)

Organization
Social Events
On the first evening, we plan a free city-tour through the historic center and a dinner (self-paying). On Wednesday, we organize for interested participants a visit of the "Die Zauberflöte" in the famous Semper Opera (opera composed by W.A. Mozart, with German and English supertitles). You should not miss it, although the number of tickets is limited. The social events are on a self-paying basis.
