Dear HPC users of LRZ,

 

There are still free places for the following courses at LRZ:

 

PRACE Course: Advanced Fortran Topics

Date: Monday, September 9 - Friday, September 13, 2019, 9:00-18:00
Location: LRZ
Registration deadline: August 26, 2019

Lecturers: Dr. R. Bader, Dr. G. Brietzke (LRZ)

Further information and registration:  https://events.prace-ri.eu/event/897/

Topics:

This course, partly a PRACE training event, is targeted at scientists who wish to extend their knowledge of Fortran to cover advanced features of the language.

Topics covered include:

 

·         Best Practices

·         Object-oriented programming

·         IEEE features and floating point exceptions

·         Interoperability with C

·         Fortran 2003 I/O extensions

·         OO Design Patterns: application of object-oriented programming

·         Coarrays

 

The lectures are given by Dr. Reinhold Bader, who participates in the standardisation activities of the Fortran programming language in the international workgroup WG5, and Dr. Gilbert Brietzke.

To consolidate the lecture material, each day's approximately 4 hours of lecture are complemented by 3 hours of hands-on sessions. The last 2 days of the course are a PRACE training event.

 


 

Compact Course: Iterative Linear Solvers and Parallelization (in German!)

Date: Monday, September 16 - Friday, September 20, 2019, 9:00-18:00
Location: LRZ
Registration deadline:
September 1, 2019 (extended!)

Lecturers: Dr. Rolf Rabenseifner  (HLRS), Prof. Dr. Andreas Meister (Universität Kassel)

Further information  and registration:  https://www.lrz.de/services/compute/courses/2019-09-16_hpar1s19/

Topics:

Innerhalb des Kurses wird ein Überblick über moderne Verfahren zur effizienten Lösung großer linearer Gleichungssysteme gegeben, die eine starke Verbreitung im Bereich des wissenschaftlichen Rechnens aufweisen. Zudem wird eine detaillierte praxisorientierte Einführung  in die Parallelisierung gegeben. Dabei wird gezielt auf die Parallelisierung numerischer Verfahren und iterativer Gleichungssystemlöser  eingegangen. Der Kompaktkurs ist praxisorientiert aufgebaut und in Vorträge und  Übungen unterteilt. Den Teilnehmern wird im Rahmen des Kurses die Möglichkeit gegeben, die Lehrinhalte in Computerprogramme umzusetzen.

 

Der Kurs beinhaltet die Themen:

 

·         Klassische Splitting-Verfahren

·         Krylov-Unterraummethoden

·         (CG, GMRES, BiCGSTAB, CGS, ...)

·         Präkonditionierung

·         Mehrgitterverfahren

·         Parallelisierung

o   OpenMP

o   MPI

o   PETSc

o   iterativer Verfahren

 

Die ausführlichen, kursbegleitenden Unterlagen

 

·         Vortragsfolien

·         Zusammenfassung: Parallel Programming Workshop

·         Buch: Numerik linearer Gleichungssysteme ( http://www.amazon.de/exec/obidos/ASIN/3658071990 )

 

sind in der Teilnahmegebühr enthalten.
