A comprehensive list of training resources from the HPC University. HPCU is a virtual organization whose primary goal is to provide a cohesive, persistent, and sustainable on-line environment to share educational and training materials for a continuum of high performance computing environments that span desktop computing capabilities to the highest-end of computing facilities offered by HPC centers.
Advanced Compilers: The Self-Guided Online Course
0
This is a self guided online course on compilers. The topics covered throughout the course include universal compilers topics like intermediate representations, data flow, and “classic” optimizations as well as more research focusedtopics such as parallelization, just-in-time compilation, and garbage collection.
Building Anaconda Navigator applications
0
This tutorial explains how to create an Anaconda Navigator Application (app) for JupyterLab. It is intended for users of Windows, macOS, and Linux who want to generate an Anaconda Navigator app conda package from a given recipe. Prior knowledge of conda-build or conda recipes is recommended.
WRF in the Public Cloud
0
CAC summer student employee Jeff Lantz describes his experiences in running the WRF weather forecasting application in the public cloud. He compares the major cloud providers and some container-based deployment technologies that are available on each, with a particular emphasis on Docker and Kubernetes. Since WRF is a computationally intensive numerical simulation, Jeff had to pay special attention to certain HPC characteristics of the code, such as the need to launch multiple communicating MPI processes on one or more cloud instances, and the need to set up an NFS file server to satisfy I/O requirements.
Creating a Mobile Application
0
Goes through in detail on how to build an application that can run on Android and IOS devices, using Qt Creator to develop Qt Quick applications. Goes through the setting up, creation, configuration, optimization, and overall deployment. This provides the fundamental basis, need to click around on the site for more specifics.
Introduction to MP
0
Open Multi-Processing, is an API designed to simplify the integration of parallelism in software development, particularly for applications running on multi-core processors and shared-memory systems. It is an important resource as it goes over what openMP and ways to work with it. It is especially important because it provides a straightforward way to express parallelism in code through pragma directives, making it easier to create parallel regions, parallelize loops, and define critical sections. The key benefit of OpenMP lies in its ease of use, automatic thread management, and portability across various compilers and platforms. For app development, especially in the context of mobile or desktop applications, OpenMP can enhance performance by leveraging the capabilities of modern multi-core processors. By parallelizing computationally intensive tasks, such as image processing, data analysis, or simulations, apps can run faster and more efficiently, providing a smoother user experience and taking full advantage of the available hardware resources. OpenMP's scalability allows apps to adapt to different hardware configurations, making it a valuable tool for developers aiming to optimize their software for a range of devices and platforms.
