Introduction to parallel programming
Courses lectured over several afternoons will give an introduction to parallel programming.
All courses are free of charge.
All lectures are held in English.
All courses are held twice every year (February and September).
Registration: Send an e-mail to: adm@hpc.ntnu.no
(Please add your NTNU User Name in the Registration Email)
Topics covered:
- A walk through of cluster architectures. Amdahl's vs Gustafsons law. Simple MPI-calls, programs with MPI-collective
- OpenMP Programming for CPU and GPU, and hybrid programming (MPI/OpenMP). (OpenMP for GPU is only in September). (Basic knowledge of c or foran, and Linux commands are useful)
- MPI: Programming examples and Algorithms .
- (Only in February) Parallel Matlab Programming and distributed Matlab using MPI. Examples with parallel R and parallel Python. Examples using Deep learing in Matlab.
- Introduction to Jupyter Notebooks is a tutorial showing the basic use of Python in a Jupyter Notebook
Install a Matlab Client on your laptop. See http://www.ntnu.no/adm/it/orakel and software.ntnu.no
The MPI course consists of two parts: an introduction to MPI and a second part that covers a lot of the examples from the IBM's Redbook "Practical MPI programming", Practical MPI Programming - IBM Redbook
Remember to bring your own laptop.
(For Window users: Please install a ssh client, like X-Win32 (which you find in software.ntnu.no), or PuTTY with an X-server on your computer e.g. Xming
