Those who prepared their own application test cases will have been coached in the tuning of their measurement and a nalysis\, and provided optimization suggestions.\n\nProgramme Overview\n\n Presentations and hands-on sessions are on the following topics:\n\nBSC to ols for trace analysis and performance prediction\n Score-P instrumentatio n and measurement\n Scalasca automated trace analysis\n MAP+PR profiling a nd performance reports\nA brief overview of the capabilities of these and associated tools is provided in the VI-HPS Tools Guide.\n\nThe workshop wi ll be held in English and run from 09:00 to not later than 18:00 each day\ , with breaks for lunch and refreshments. There is no fee for participatio n\, however\, participants are responsible for their own travel and accomm odation.\n\nClassroom capacity is limited\, therefore priority will be giv en to applicants with MPI\, OpenMP and hybrid OpenMP+MPI parallel codes al ready running on the workshop computer systems\, and those bringing codes from similar systems to work on. Workstations are provided to connect to t he workshop computer systems\, however\, (eduroam) wifi will be available so participants could also use personal notebook computers with SSH and X1 1 configured.\n\nOutline\n\nThe workshop introduces tools that provide a p ractical basis for portable performance analysis of parallel application e xecution\, covering both profiling and tracing. It will be delivered as a series of presentations with associated hands-on practical exercises using the UK's ARCHER Cray XC30 supercomputer.\n\nWhile analysis of provided ex ample codes will be used to guide the class through the relevant steps and familiarise with usage of the tools\, coaching will also be available to assist participants to analyse their own parallel application codes and ma y suggest opportunities for improving their execution performance and scal ability.\n\nProgramme (preliminary)\n\nDay 1:\n Wednesday 8th February\ n 09:00\n Welcome messages [Nico de Tullio &\; Michael Bareford]\n 09:15\n Introduction\n Introduction to VI-HPS &\; overview of tools [Brian Wylie\, JSC]\n Introduction to parallel performance engineering [Wadud Miah\, NAG]\n Lab setup\n Archer Cray XC30 computer system a nd software environment\n Building and running NPB-MZ-MPI/BT-MZ on Arch er Cray XC30\n \n 10:30\n (break)\n 11:00\n BSC performance tools [Judit Gimenez\, BSC]\n BSC tools hands-on exercises\n \n 12:30\n ( lunch)\n 14:00\n Hands-on coaching to apply tools to analyze participan ts' own code(s).\n 17:00\n Review of day and schedule for remainder of workshop\n 17:30\n (adjourn)\n  \n Day 2:\n Thursday 9th February \n 09:00\n Instrumentation &\; measurement with Score-P [Brian Wylie \, JSC]\n Score-P hands-on exercisesExecution profile analysis report ex ploration with CUBE [JSC]\n CUBE hands-on exercises\n \n 10:30\n ( break)\n 11:00\n Configuring &\; customising Score-P measurements [B rian Wylie\, JSC]\n Score-P hands-on exercisesAutomated trace analysis w ith Scalasca [JSC]\n Scalasca hands-on exercises\n \n 12:30\n (lun ch)\n 14:00\n Hands-on coaching to apply tools to analyze participants' own code(s).\n 17:00\n Review of day and schedule for remainder of wor kshop\n 17:30\n (adjourn)\n  \n Day 3:\n Friday 10th February\n 09:00\n Allinea performance tools suite [Florent Lebeau\, Allinea]\n A llinea hands-on exercises\n \n 10:30\n (break)\n 11:00\n POP CoE m ission &\; services\n Review of workshop\n 12:30\n (lunch)\n 14:0 0\n Hands-on coaching to apply tools to analyze participants' own code(s ).\n 16:00\n (adjourn)\n Hardware and Software Platforms\n\nARCHER: Cr ay XC30 with 3008 compute nodes consisting of two 12-core Intel E5-2697 (I vyBridge) processors sharing 64GB (or 128GB) of NUMA memory\, Aries dragon fly interconnect\, Cray MPI\, Cray\, GCC &\; Intel compilers\, PBS Pro job management system. Training accounts will be provided!\n\nOther system s where up-to-date versions of the tools are installed can also be used wh en preferred\, though support may be limited. Participants are expected to already possess user accounts on non-local systems they intend to use\, a nd should be familiar with the procedures for compiling and running parall el applications.\n\nRegistration\n\nPlease register via the Registration t ab on this page. Note: the number of participants is limited\, and prefere nce will be given to those bringing parallel application(s) to analyse and tune as part of the workshop.\n\nLocal organisers information page.\n\nht tps://events.prace-ri.eu/event/582/ SUMMARY:24th VI-HPS Tuning Workshop @ EPCC at Southampton URL;VALUE=URI:https://events.prace-ri.eu/event/582/ END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
