PADC Annual Workshop 2018
Workshop, 11-12 April 2018, Jülich Supercomputing Centre
IBM, JSC and NVIDIA have jointly set-up the “POWER Acceleration and Design Center” (PADC) to enable applications for architectures based on OpenPOWER technologies and to facilitate R&D in the context of such technologies and architectures. The workshop will allow to show-case results of these efforts. Furthermore, several hands-on training sessions on advanced technologies and approaches in the following areas are planned
- Deep Learning and HPC
- Compiler and programming models
- Accelerating applications using CAPI-attached FPGAs
- Interfacing with non-volatile memory
Interested scientists are cordially invited to participate. The number of participants is limited and we therefore ask for registration.
