Contents

The Multi-GPU Programming Bootcamp will be hosted virtually for two days on May 6 - 7. Scaling applications to multiple GPUs across multiple nodes requires one to be adept at programming models and optimization techniques, and proficient at performing root-cause analysis using in-depth profiling to identify and minimize bottlenecks. The Multi-GPU Programming Bootcamp covers step-by-step ways to improve application performance using cues from profilers and provides an understanding of the underlying technologies and communication topology needed to leverage powerful NVIDIA® libraries to extract more performance from the system.

This bootcamp is co-organized by the High-Performance Computing Center Stuttgart (HLRS), Jülich Supercomputing Centre (JSC), Leibniz Supercomputing Centre (LRZ), Vienna Scientific Cluster (VSC), RISE Research Institutes Of Sweden (RISE), Linköping University (LiU), OpenACC organization and NVIDIA for EuroCC Austria, EuroCC@GCS and EuroCC Sweden, all National Competence Centres for High-Performance Computing.

Event Format

This two-day bootcamp will be hosted online in the Central European Summer Time (CEST) zone. All communication will be done through Zoom, Slack, and email.

Prerequisites

• Experience with C/C++, NVIDIA CUDA®, MPI.

Hands-On

Attendees will be given access to a GPU cluster for the duration of the bootcamp.
