The ACENET Summer School in Advanced Research Computing seeks to educate researchers in those tools and techniques used in high-performance computing and scientific computation. Topics will include general parallel computing, OpenMP, GPGPU, and MPI programming, and machine learning.
Who: The course is aimed at researchers, both academic and industrial. The background expected is typically that of a graduate student, although both advanced undergraduates and those who have finished (or never been to) graduate school may expect to benefit. Participants attending the school must have familiarity with the Unix command line, and some level of programming experience. Participating in the ACENET Basics Series would be a great foundation for the school.
Requirements: This course will be delivered on-line.
This online training will be conducted using Zoom video conferencing. Please download and install Zoom Client for Meetings.
You must have an SSH client installed on your computer, and be able to connect to a Compute Canada cluster with it.
Contact: Please email ross.dickson@ace-net.ca for more information.
