Program
This schedule is tentative, so please check back regularly.
Day 1 - Thursday, April 14, 2011
Lehigh University in conjunction with the Pittsburgh Supercomputing Center are pleased to offer a full day of High Performance Computing instruction. Participants will receive a comprehensive introduction to current scientific computing techniques, including a hands-on introduction to distributed computing with MPI. Pittsburgh Supercomputing Center instructors will cover all of the significant computing paradigms such as GPGPU computing and new parallel languages. Students will learn the most popular and effective technique, MPI programming, in detail, followed by hands-on exercises and real problems. Participants are encouraged to bring their own code(s) and seek advice from the instructors. Walk away with the tools necessary to take advantage of the parallel computing facilities available to you at Lehigh. Practical knowledge of C or Fortran is required.
The first day will take place in Rauch Business Center, Room 051.
