3rd VI-HPS Tuning Workshop

Workshop, 16-20 February 2009, Jülich Supercomputing Centre, Jülich, Germany

Overview

The Virtual Institute - High Productivity Supercomputing (VI-HPS) is a joint initiative of Forschungszentrum Jülich GmbH Jülich Supercomputing Centre (JSC), Rheinisch-Westfälischen Technischen Hochschule Aachen (RWTH), Technische Universität Dresden Zentrum für Informationsdienste und Hochleistungsrechnen (ZIH), University of Tennessee Innovative Computing Laboratory (ICL), and Universität Stuttgart Höchstleistungsrechenzentrum (HLRS).

To improve the quality and accelerate the development process of parallel simulation codes using MPI and OpenMP, we develop integrated state-of-the-art programming tools for high-performance computing that assist in optimizing application performance and diagnosing programming errors. As a service for application developers, we also offer training in using our tools.

The workshop is free of charge, however, travel, accommodation and associated costs are at your own expense.
IBM is sponsoring a social dinner for workshop participants at the local Maestral restaurant on Tuesday evening.

Goals

This workshop will:

• give an overview of our programming tools suite
• explain the functionality of individual tools, and how to use them effectively
• offer hands-on experience and expert assistance using the tools
