[Host10] Upcoming webinar: Tools and Techniques for Floating-Point Analysis

[IDEAS Project Outreach Lead]

The next webinar in the HPC Best Practices (https://ideas-productivity.us16.list-manage.com/track/click?u=5438ff2caf2456f6ec49ebfbf&id=a10484998b&e=b9db70c2a7) series is:
Tools and Techniques for Floating-Point Analysis
1:00-2:00 ET
Wednesday October 16, 2018
Presenter: Ignacio Laguna (Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory)

Description: Scientific software is central to the practice of research computing. While software is widely used in many science and engineering disciplines to simulate real-world phenomena, developing accurate and reliable scientific software is notoriously difficult. One of the most serious difficulties comes from dealing with floating-point arithmetic to perform numerical computations. Round-off errors occur and accumulate at all levels of computation, while compiler optimizations and low-precision arithmetic can significantly affect the final computational results. With accelerators such as GPUs dominating high-performance computing systems, computational scientists are faced with even bigger challenges, given that ensuring numerical reproducibility in these systems poses a very difficult problem. This webinar provides highlights from a half-day tutorial discussing tools that are available today to analyze floating-point scientific software. We focus on tools that allow programmers to
get insight about how different aspects of floating-point arithmetic affect their code and how to fix potential bugs.
Participation is free, but registration is required.
