The contents consist of lectures and ha nds-on training on parallel programming\, code optimization and other nece ssary skills in development of scientific software. General informationTh e school is aimed for graduate students working in various fields of scien ce\, e.g.\, chemistry\, physics\, life sciences\, engineering or economics as well as Industrial R&\;D professionals. Also undergraduates as we ll as post-docs will find the school very useful.The ten days of school are filled with coding\, sports\, leisure activities and having good time together. It will be an experience you will never forget with the midnight sun in the Nordic night next to breathtaking wilderness!The following top ics will be covered: Basics of parallel programming using message-passi ng (MPI) and threading (OpenMP) paradigmsProgramming GPUs with OpenMP a nd HIPEfficient input/output using parallel I/OMore advanced topics in M PIHybrid parallel programming combining MPI\, OpenMP\, HIPBuilding real- world HPC applications.Brief introduction to Quantum ComputingThe partici pants will get a certificate containing a recommendation to your home univ ersity to grant you 5 credits (ECTS) for the school.You may also want to r ead CSC's article with positive experiences from 2023: https://www.csc.fi/ -/summer-school-brings-together-learners-interested-in-high-performance-co mputing  Or previous article from 2022: https://www.csc.fi/-/hpc-summer- school  Learning outcomeThe goal is that it would be possible to build HPC expertise up to an intermediate/semi-advanced level during the school .After the summer school participants will be able to:Identify the most im portant parallel programming conceptsConstruct simple parallel programs wi th C++/C or Fortran programming languagesConstruct simple GPU programsReco gnize advanced parallel programming constructsRead and modify scientific a pplications implemented in C++/C or Fortran and utilizing MPI\, OpenMP and HIPPrerequisitesSome skills to operate in a Unix environmentBasic knowled ge of version control with GitParticipants are expected to have some exper ience in programming with C++/C or Fortran\, and to be familiar with their basic concepts (e.g. variables\, statements\, control structures\, subrou tines\, modules/classes). AccommodationAccommodation takes place in doubl e rooms with en-suite shower and toilet. Linen and towels will be provide d. The FeeThe fee for all ten days is 1650eur + VAT (24 %).The fee is a ll-inclusive. It includes accommodation (double rooms)\, four meals and tw o coffee breaks on most days\, social events\,  course materials (electro nic)\, instructed sport activities\, refreshments\, and transportation fro m downtown Helsinki and back.SelectionThe participants will be selected ba sed on their background information. Notification about acceptance will be send within five business days after registration.Deadline for registrati ons is 01.05.2024Contact cristian-vasile.achim@csc.fi for course details o r event-support@csc.fi for registration related questions.       LOCATION:Nuuksio Hotelli - Naruportintie 68 SUMMARY:The CSC Summer School in High-Performance Computing 2024 URL;VALUE=URI:https://ssl.eventilla.com/summerschool2024 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
