SUMMARY:GPU Programming: Why\, When and How?
DESCRIPTION:This is a two day online course given on Friday 9th and Monday 12th of June. \n\n\n\nOn June 16 there will additionally be an optional mini-hackathon event where you are invited to bring your own code\, that you want to port to GPUs\, and get expert help from mentors. \n\n\n\nGraphical processing units (GPUs) are the workhorse of many high performance computing (HPC) systems around the world. The number of GPU-enabled supercomputers on the Top500 has been steadily increasing in recent years and this development is expected to continue. In the near future the majority of HPC computing power available to researchers and engineers is likely to be provided by GPUs or other types of accelerators. Programming GPUs and other accelerators is thus increasingly important to developers who write software which is executed on HPC systems. \n\n\n\nHowever\, the landscape of GPU hardware\, software and programming environments is complicated. Multiple vendors compete in the high-end GPU market\, each vendor provides their own software stack and development toolkits\, and even beyond that there is a proliferation of tools\, languages and frameworks that can be used to write code for GPUs. It can thus be difficult for individual developers and project owners to know how to navigate this landscape and select the most appropriate GPU programming framework for their projects based on the requirements of a given project and technical specifics of any existing code. \n\n\n\nThis workshop is based on a multilateral collaboration between GPU programming specialists from KTH in Sweden\, HPC2N in Umeå\, CSC in Finland\, NRIS in Norway\, Aarhus University in Denmark\, Vilnius University in Lithuania\, Aalto University in Finland\, and ENCCS. It is meant to help both software developers and decision makers navigate the GPU programming landscape and make more informed decisions on which languages or frameworks to learn and use for their projects.  \n\n\n\nAim of the workshop\n\n\n\n\nUnderstand why and when to use GPUs.\n\n\n\nBecome comfortable with key concepts in GPU programming.\n\n\n\nAcquire a comprehensive overview of different software frameworks\, what levels they operate at\, and which to use when.\n\n\n\nLearn the fundamentals in at least one framework to a level which will enable you to quickly become a productive GPU programmer.\n\n\n\n\nPrerequisites\n\n\n\nThis workshop is most relevant to researchers and engineers who already develop software which runs on CPUs in workstations or supercomputers\, but also to decision makers or project managers who don’t write code but make strategic decisions in software projects\, whether it’s in academia\, industry or the public sector. \n\n\n\nFamiliarity with one or more programming languages like C/C++\, Fortran\, Python or Julia is recommended. \n\n\n\nAgenda\n\n\n\nFriday 9 June 2023 \n\n\n\n[ninja_tables id=”25486″]\n\n\n\nMonday 12 June 2023 \n\n\n\n[ninja_tables id=”25487″]\n\n\n\nRegistration\n\n\n\nRegistrations are now closed. \n\n\n\nDeadline: 26 May 2023 \n\n\n\nMini-hackathon on June 16\n\n\n\nAs a follow-up to the training workshop on June 9 and 12\, you have the option to attend an online “mini-hackathon” on June 16 from 9:00-15:00. If you have a code that you would like to port to GPUs with the skills you learned during the workshop\, you are invited to attend the mini-hackathon and get help from experts. To register for the mini-hackathon please additionally fill out the registration form at https://events.prace-ri.eu/event/1502/registrations/1102/ \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nContact\n\n\n\nFor any questions contact us at training@enccs.se \n\n\n\n———— \n\n\n\nThis training is intended for users established in the European Union or a country associated with Horizon 2020.

SUMMARY:CodeRefinery Best Practices Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Do you write code for your research? Do you manage data? Most importantly\, are you doing it properly? Has it ever happened to you to have to rewrite or simply copy-paste codes from one folder to another\, possibly losing things during the process? Have you ever opened an old code you wrote and had no clue what it does? Maybe you feel you waste a lot of time doing a lot of manual work to process your data and would like to automate it? Or maybe you also are not doing any of this yet\, but would like to avoid these issues from happening in the future and do things properly from the beginning? \n\n\n\nIf you answered yes to any of the previous questions\, then you are strongly encouraged to participate in the CodeRefinery workshop in Uppsala on May 9-11\, 2023. \n\n\n\nENCCS will provide helpers at the workshop. \n\n\n\nTopics\n\n\n\n\nUsing Git to maintain your codes and collaborate with others\n\n\n\nPrinciples of reproducible research and FAIR\n\n\n\nGood coding practices in general (writing documentation\, testing\, how to choose an appropriate license)\n\n\n\nThe Workshop will not teach you to code\, but all the “good practice skills” that are needed to write good maintainable software and achieve reproducible research.\n\n\n\n\nThe workshop will alternate between type-along tutorials and hands-on exercises. You may register for parts of the workshop. \n\n\n\nRegistration\n\n\n\nMore information and the registration form may be found on the workshop page: https://coderefinery.github.io/2023-05-09-uppsala \n\n\n\nFollow our Events Schedule\n\n\n\nFollow us on Twitter and subscribe to our Newsletter to stay tuned to our events and other news.

SUMMARY:Python for Scientific Computing
DESCRIPTION:Overview\nPython is a modern\, object-oriented programming language\, which has become popular in several areas of software development. This course discusses how Python can be utilised in scientific computing. The workshop starts by introducing the main Python package for numerical computing\, NumPy\, and discusses the SciPy toolbox for various scientific computing tasks as well as visualization with the Matplotlib package. In addition\, it talks about how Python is used: related scientific libraries\, reproducibility\, and the broader ecosystem of science in Python. \nThis multilateral collaborative workshop is hosted by Aalto Scientific Computing (Aalto University\, Finland) in partnership with CodeRefinery\, ENCCS and other organisations. The lesson material can be found at https://aaltoscicomp.github.io/python-for-scicomp/  \nThe workshop will be streamed via Twitch so that anyone may follow along without registration. However\, ENCCS is hosting a Zoom room with expert helpers who will organise breakout rooms and provide hands-on assistance during exercise sessions. \nPrerequisites\n\nKnowing basic Python syntax. We assume that you can do some Python programming\, but not much more that that. We don’t cover standard Python programming.\nWatch or read the command line crash course if you aren’t familiar.\nYou should be able to use a text editor to edit files some.\nThe software installation (basically\, anaconda).\n\nThese are not prerequisites:  \n\nAny external libraries\, e.g. numpy\nKnowing how to make scripts or use Jupyter\n\nTentative agenda \nTue 22 Nov\, 09:00-12:00  \n\nIntro \n09:15 Jupyter \n10:00 numpy \n11:10 pandas… \n\nWed 23 Nov\, 09:00-12:00  \n\n… pandas continued \n09:30 matplotlib \n11:10 data formats \n\nThu 24 Nov\, 09:00-12:00  \n\nscripts \n10:10 scipy \n10:30 library ecosystem \n11:10 parallel… \n\nFri 25 Nov\, 09:00-12:00  \n\n… parallel continued(?) \n09:00 dependency management \n10:10 binder \n10:50 packaging \n11:30 panel discussion or buffer time? \n11:50 Outro \n12:00 After-party/discussion in zoom \n\nFollow-up  \nThe ENCCS workshop on High Performance Data Analytics in Python\, which goes more in-depth on tools for high-performance and large-scale Python\, is a logical follow-up to this workshop.

SUMMARY:Intermediate Topics in MPI
DESCRIPTION:This workshop targets programmers in both academia and industry who already have experience with basic MPI and are ready to take the next step to more advanced usage. Topics which will be covered include communicators\, groups\, derived data types\, one-sided communication\, non-blocking collectives and hybrid MPI+threading approaches. Lectures will be interleaved with hands-on exercises. All exercises will be written in C\, but the instructors will be able to answer questions about MPI in Fortran and Python. \nFor this workshop ENCCS partners up with our friends at PDC and HPC2N. \nThe Message Passing Interface (MPI) is the de facto standard for distributed memory parallelism in high performance computing (HPC).

SUMMARY:ENCCS/EXCELLERAT - Training on Nek5000
DESCRIPTION:Summary\nIn this one-day training\, we will give an overview of the capabilities and features of Nek5000\, together with a hands-on session to install\, run and postprocess some comparably simple flow cases. Nek5000 is a spectral-element based solver for CFD\, and is available as an open source package. The code has become popular among researchers worldwide\, mainly because of its relatively high accuracy per grid point\, its parallel efficiency and the wide user community and available packages (e.g. statistics\, linear stability\, adjoints etc.). The development of the various methods goes back to the mid 80s\, and a number of different approaches is now implemented\, both when it comes to the integration of Navier-Stokes\, the communication kernels and efficient single-core performance. There are also advanced capabilities when it comes to meshing\, turbulence models\, moving meshes that make Nek5000 attractive even for more industrially relevant flows. The benefit of high order and efficient parallelisation is clearly a distinguishing feature in situations when high fidelity simulation data is required. \nSpeakers\nAdam Peplinski\, Niclas Jansson\, Philipp Schlatter \nPreliminary Agenda\n[ninja_tables id=”9756″] \nWorkshop Videos\nLectures\n \nHands-on Part 1\n \nHands-on Part 2\n \nPrerequisites\nThere are no formal prerequisites for the workshop. However\, it would be helpful if you are familiar with MPI\, C/Fortran compiler as well as post-processing tools such as Visit/ParaView. In order to participate in the hands-on sessions\, you will need access to a (preferably) Linux command line with a Fortran and C compiler (e.g. gcc and gfortran)\, MPI (e.g. openmpi) and possibly git and VisIt. A slide deck on Fortran 77 as used in Nek5000 can be found at https://media.enccs.se/2021/08/Frotran_crash_course.pdf. \nRegistration\nRegistration is now closed. \n

SUMMARY:CodeRefinery/ENCCS online workshop and hackathon on software testing
DESCRIPTION:Welcome to the first CodeRefinery/ENCCS workshop and hackathon on software testing on March 17 and 24! In this event you will become familiar with tools and best practices for testing research software and get help in adopting these in your own projects by experienced mentors. \nWho is it for?\nAre you doing any of these things?\n• You write scripts to process data.\n• You change scripts written by your colleagues.\n• You write code that is used in research by you or others.\n• You are not already extensively testing your code or scripts.\nIf yes\, then this software testing workshop and hackathon is for you! \nFormat\nThe event will be divided into two parts – a workshop on March 17 and a hackathon on March 24. In the workshop we go through the CodeRefinery lesson on automated testing and work on exercises in breakout rooms where you can use your favorite programming language. Participants will be paired up with mentors\, and in the week leading up to the hackathon the mentor can answer questions and provide guidance as participants design or implement tests in their code. During the hackathon participants split into groups and work in a sprint together with their mentor. \nSchedule\nDay 1 (March 17) – Workshop\n[ninja_tables id=”8417″] \nMarch 18-23\nParticipants work on their own projects and get advice from mentors. \nDay 2 (March 24) – Hackathon\n[ninja_tables id=”8418″] \nHow to join\nWe particularly recommend that you sign up as a team together with your colleagues! Single participants are however also welcome. It is possible to only attend the workshop on day 1 and not take part in the hackathon. For further instructions and to register for the event\, please visit https://coderefinery.github.io/2021-03-17-testing-hackathon/. \nPrerequisites\nIf you will attend the Hackathon\, you are expected to bring a code project to the event in which you want to implement testing functionality. It does not need to be a large complicated codebase\, just something you use or intend to use in your research. If it’s not your own code\, make sure that it has a license which allows you to modify it. You may also need to install some software\, and we recommend that you familiarize yourself with Git if you haven’t used it before.\nSee the event page for further details (https://coderefinery.github.io/2021-03-17-testing-hackathon/).
