[Host10] Upcoming Webinar: Migrating to Heterogeneous Computing: Lessons Learned in the Sierra and El Captan Centers of Excellence

[IDEAS Project Outreach Lead]

The next webinar in the HPC Best Practices (http://ideas-productivity.org/events/hpc-best-practices-webinars/) series is:
Migrating to Heterogeneous Computing: Lessons Learned in the Sierra and El Captan Centers of Excellence
1:00-2:00 ET
Wednesday, October 13, 2021
Presenter: David Richards (Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory)

Description: The introduction of heterogeneous computing via GPUs from the Sierra architecture represented a significant shift in direction for computational science at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL), and therefore required significant preparation. The Sierra Center of Excellence (COE) brought employees with specific expertise from IBM and NVIDIA together with LLNL in a concentrated effort to prepare applications, system software, and tools for the Sierra supercomputer. To prepare for El Captan, a new COE is currently operating in collaboration with HPE and AMD. This webinar will describe the operation of these COEs and document lessons learned, with the hope that others will be able to learn from both our success and intermediate setbacks. We describe what we have found to be best practices for managing the vendor collaborations, migrating algorithms and source code, working with the system software stack and tools, and optimizing application performance.
Participation is free, but registration is required. Registrants will also receive an email when the recording of the panel is available.
