DESCRIPTION:The workshop is organised as a compact course on techniques and
  methods\, focused on code improvement and exploration of the latest Intel
  processor features\, in particular the vector units. During this optimisa
 tion process\, the attendees will learn how to enable vectorisation using 
 simple pragmas and more effective techniques\, like changing data layout a
 nd alignment. This work is guided by the hints from the Intel compiler rep
 orts\, and using Intel Advisor. The outline of the workshop includes: basi
 cs on modern computer architectures\, optimisation process and vectorisati
 on\, Intel Advisor. We provide also an N-body code\, to support the descri
 bed optimisation solutions with practical examples.\n\nThe course is a PRA
 CE Advanced Training Center event.\n\nLearning goals\n\nThrough a sequence
  of simple\, guided examples of code modernisation\, the attendees will de
 velop awareness on features of multi and many-core architecture which are 
 crucial for writing modern\, portable and efficient applications.\n\nTimet
 able (tentative)\n\n09:00-10:30 Introduction: Modern computer architecture
 \, memory hierarchy\n11:00-12:30 Code optimization process I: enable SIMD 
 (with hands-on)\n13:30-15:00 Code optimization process II: data layout and
  OpenMP (with hands-on)\n15:30-17:00 Profiling tools: Intel Advisor (with 
 hands-on)\n\n\nAbout the lecturers\n\nFabio Baruffa is HPC Application Spe
 cialist at LRZ and member of the Intel Parallel Computing Center (IPCC). H
 e was working as HPC researcher at Max-Planck (MPCDF)\, Jülich Research C
 enter and Cineca where he was involved in HPC software development. His ma
 in research interests are in the area of computational methods and optimiz
 ations for HPC systems. He holds a PhD in Physics from University of Regen
 sburg for his research in the area of spintronics.\n	Luigi Iapichino holds
  a position of scientific computing expert at LRZ and he is member of the 
 Intel Parallel Computing Center (IPCC). His main tasks are code modernisat
 ion for many-core systems\, and HPC support. He got in 2005 a PhD in physi
 cs from TU München\, working at the Max Planck Institute for Astrophysics
 . Before moving to LRZ in 2014\, he worked at the Universities of Würzbur
 g and Heidelberg\, involved in research projects related to computational 
 astrophysics.\n	 \n	\n\n\nhttps://events.prace-ri.eu/event/607/
