PRACE PATC Course: Introduction to hybrid programming in HPC

 

Date: Thursday, January 12, 2017 10:00 - 17:00

Registration deadline: December 29, 2016

Lecturer: Dr. Georg Hager (RRZE), Dr. Rolf Rabenseifner (HLRS, member of the steering committee of the MPI-3 forum)

Topics: Combining the distributed memory parallelization on the node interconnect (e.g., with MPI) with the shared memory parallelization inside of each node (e.g., with OpenMP or MPI-3.0 shared memory), strengths and weaknesses of several parallel programming models on clusters of SMP nodes, various hybrid MPI+OpenMP approaches, numerous case studies and micro-benchmarks, tools for hybrid programming
