An introduction to shared memory parallel programming using OpenMP, 12 - 14 September 2023

The course is a collaboration between HPC2N and LUNARC and consists of lectures alternating with practical sessions.  The teaching language will be English.  No prior experience in parallel computing is required.  Participants are however expected to be able to write serial programs in C, C++ or Fortran.  The course contents includes:

Introduction to Kebnekaise, 21 September 2023

In this course we will cover the following topics: 

Using Python in an HPC environment

This course aims to give a brief, but comprehensive introduction to using Python in an HPC environment. You will learn how to use modules to load Python, how to find site installed Python packages, as well as how to install packages yourself. In addition, you will learn how to use virtual environments, write a batch script for running Python, use Python in parallel, and how to use Python for ML and on GPUs. 

The future of HPC programming - a Modern Fortran workshop

Future of HPC programming: recent developments in Fortran

R in an HPC environment

Introduction to Git

The course will be an introduction to version control, with a strong focus on Git.

Some of the main concepts, like repositories, commits, trees, branches, and merges will be covered, as will many of the basic commands, like clone, add, push, pull, commit, and fork. We will also go one step beyond the basic concepts and explain the fundamentals of how commits and branches can be manually created by using so-called "plumbing" (low-level) subcommands.

Course: An introduction to parallel programming using Message Passing with MPI, 17-20 October 2022

Julia for High-Performance Scientific Computing

This is a cooperation between HPC2N and ENCCS.

This online workshop will start by briefly covering the basics of Julia’s syntax and features, and then introduce methods and libraries which are useful for writing high-performance code for modern HPC systems. After attending the workshop you will:
