DESCRIPTION:Energy and power constrains are conditioning the next-generatio
 n supercomputers toward highly parallel architectures\, based either on hy
 brid CPU-GPU design or on homogeneous many cores System on a Chip.  Appli
 cations need to be restructured to cope with massive parallelism that is p
 resent at all levels of the architecture (vector core\, node\, system wide
 )\, and  new programming paradigms must be implemented to exploit them. 
 \nMoreover\, in many application domains\, high level code gluing (e.g. py
 thon) are being used to couple applications or to link domain specific lib
 raries as a way to leverage the already existing massively parallel codes.
 \nThis school focus on innovative software development techniques to addre
 ss the implementation of new HPC applications and the re-factory of existi
 ng ones\, in the era of energy efficient\, massively parallel architecture
 s. \nSoftware engineering techniques and high productivity languages will
  complement more traditional lectures on parallel programming\, to allow t
 he implementation of applications that can be maintained across a complex 
 and fast evolving HPC architectures. \nThe school\, in the hands-on sessi
 on\, will give the possibility to exercise using both Nvidia and Intel mas
 sively parallel chips. \n\nTOPICS\n    * Characteristics of Hybrid and 
 Homogeneous architectures\n    * Elements of software engineering\n  
   * Parallel programming techniques for hybrid CPU-GPU architectures\n 
    * Parallel programming techniques for homogeneous Many core architect
 ures\n    * New OpenMP stadard and task based programming\n    * Int
 roduction to Python for high performance computing\n    * Integration o
 f different programming  paradigm: MPI\, OpenMP\,  python and device spe
 cific\n TARGET AUDIENCE\nThe school is aimed at PRACE users\, final year 
 master students\, PhD students\, and young researchers in computational sc
 iences and engineering\, with different backgrounds\, interested in applyi
 ng the emerging technologies on high performance computing to their resear
 ch.\n PRE-REQUISITES\nBasic knowledge of parallel programming with MPI an
 d/or OpenMP\, knowledge of FORTRAN and C languages.\nBasic knowledge of pa
 rallel computer architectures.\n     \nAttendance is free. A grant of
  250 EUR (for students working abroad) and 150 EUR (for students working i
 n Italy) will be available for participants not funded by their institutio
 n and not working or living in the Bologna area. Documentation will be req
 uired. Lunch will be provided by Cineca. Each student will be given a two 
 month access to the Cineca's supercomputing resources.\n  APPLICATION DE
 ADLINE \nJanuary 16th\, 2016\n    \nThe number of participants for eac
 h edition is limited to 24 students. Applicants will be selected according
  to their experience\, qualification and scientific interest.\n   EDITI
 ON FOR 2016\n15 - 19 of February\, 2016 - Bologna\n \nThis edition will b
