<br>
GASPI (Global Address Space Programming Interface) offers a small, yet powerful API for scalable HPC applications following a single program multiple data (SPMD) approach. Single-sided communication primitives are supplemented by a light weight synchronization
 mechanism (notifications).<br>
<br>
<b>Agenda</b><br>
<br>
The course aims to provide an introduction to the GASPI API as well as to discuss typical use cases.<br>
On the Linux cluster CoolMUC-2 the attendees will have the chance to apply the acquired skills.<br>
