ACADEMIA

The Ken Kennedy Institute for Information Technology at Rice University has announced that the fourth annual week-long High-Performance Computing Summer Institute will be hosted June 4 – 8, 2012. Each day will consist of in-class instructions by leading experts covering MPI, OpenMP, Pthreads, OpenCL, CUDA, and OpenACC, as well as performance analysis and tuning of parallel programs using open-source tools including Rice’s own HPCToolkit and Argonne National Lab’s Jumpshot. Each topic will be supported by hands-on exercises performed on Rice’s high performance systems including the DAVinCI Westmere cluster (with NVIDIA Fermi GPGPUs), the BlueBioU POWER7 cluster and on a new BlueGene/P system.

June 4 – 8, 2012
Daily from 9:00am – 5:00pm

There will be limited capacity, max 40 attendees, for the HPC Summer Institute and registration will be first come first served.
