Those who prepared their o wn application test cases will have been coached in the tuning of their me asurement and analysis\, and provided optimization suggestions.\n\nProgram me Overview\n\nPresentations and hands-on sessions are on the following to pics:\n\nBSC tools for trace analysis and performance prediction\n Score-P instrumentation and measurement\n Scalasca automated trace analysis\n MAQ AO performance analysis and optimization\nA brief overview of the capabili ties of these and associated tools is provided in the VI-HPS Tools Guide.\ n\nThe workshop will be held in English and run from 09:30 to not later th an 17:00 each day\, with breaks for lunch and refreshments. There is no fe e for participation\, however\, participants are responsible for their own travel and accommodation.\n\nClassroom capacity is limited\, therefore pr iority will be given to applicants with MPI\, OpenMP and hybrid OpenMP+MPI parallel codes already running on the workshop computer systems\, and tho se bringing codes from similar systems to work on. Attendees will need to bring their own notebook computers (with SSH and X11 configured) and use ( eduroam) wifi to connect to the workshop computer systems.\n\nOutline\n\nT he workshop introduces tools that provide a practical basis for portable p erformance analysis of parallel application execution\, covering both prof iling and tracing. It will be delivered as a series of presentations with associated hands-on practical exercises using the UK's ARCHER Cray XC30 su percomputer.\n\nWhile analysis of provided example codes will be used to g uide the class through the relevant steps and familiarise with usage of th e tools\, coaching will also be available to assist participants to analys e their own parallel application codes and may suggest opportunities for i mproving their execution performance and scalability.\n\nProgramme (prelim inary)\n\nDay 1:\n Tuesday 19th June\n 09:30\n Welcome messages\n ARCHER Training Courses\n \n 09:45\n Introduction\n Introduction to VI-HPS &\; overview of tools\n Introduction to parallel performance engineering\n Lab setup\n Archer Cray XC30 computer system and soft ware environment\n \n 11:00\n (break)\n 11:30\n BSC performance to ols\n BSC tools hands-on exercises\n \n 13:00\n (lunch)\n 14:00\n Hands-on coaching to apply tools to analyze participants' own code(s).\n 16:45\n Review of day and schedule for remainder of workshop\n 17:00\ n (adjourn)\n  \n Day 2:\n Wednesday 20th June\n 09:30\n Instru mentation &\; measurement with Score-P\n Score-P hands-on exercisesEx ecution profile analysis report exploration with CUBE\n CUBE hands-on e xercises\n \n 11:00\n (break)\n 11:30\n Configuring &\; customi sing Score-P measurements\n Score-P hands-on exercisesAutomated trace an alysis with Scalasca\n Scalasca hands-on exercises\n \n 13:00\n (l unch)\n 14:00\n Hands-on coaching to apply tools to analyze participant s' own code(s).\n 16:45\n Review of day and schedule for remainder of w orkshop\n 17:00\n (adjourn)\n  \n Day 3:\n Thursday 21st June\n 09:30\n MAQAO performance tools suite\n MAQAO hands-on exercises\n \ n 11:00\n (break)\n 11:30\n Hands-on coaching to apply tools to anal yze participants' own code(s).\n 13:00\n (lunch)\n 14:00\n Hands-on coaching to apply tools to analyze participants' own code(s).\n 16:45\n Review of workshop\n 17:00\n (adjourn)\n Hardware and Software Platfo rms\n\nARCHER: Cray XC30 with 3008 compute nodes consisting of two 12-core Intel E5-2697 (IvyBridge) processors sharing 64GB (or 128GB) of NUMA memo ry\, Aries dragonfly interconnect\, Cray MPI\, Cray\, GCC &\; Intel com pilers\, PBS Pro job management system. Training accounts will be provided !\n\nOther systems where up-to-date versions of the tools are installed ca n also be used when preferred\, though support may be limited. Participant s are expected to already possess user accounts on non-local systems they intend to use\, and should be familiar with the procedures for compiling a nd running parallel applications.\n\nRegistration\n\nPlease register via t he Registration tab on this page. Note: the number of participants is limi ted\, and preference will be given to those bringing parallel application( s) to analyse and tune as part of the workshop.\n\nLocal organisers inform ation page.\n\nhttps://events.prace-ri.eu/event/732/ SUMMARY:Performance Analysis Workshop @ EPCC at UCL URL;VALUE=URI:https://events.prace-ri.eu/event/732/ END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
