HPC2N
High Performance Computing Center North
This two days workshop is arranged together with PRACE, and will have instructors from Intel. The course focuses on programming and optimizing the Intel Knights Landing Manycore Processor. It addresses the Intel® Xeon Phi™, codenamed “Knights Landing (KNL)” architecture and how to best use it efficiently.
The purpose of this course is to give a short overview of the most important aspects of OpenMP and MPI. The first half of the day will be focused on OpenMP and the second half of the day on MPI. There will also be a part on how to use profiling tools (VTune) to optimize your code.
If you are only interested in either OpenMP or MPI, it is possible to just attend the relevant part of the course.
Please bring your own laptop if you wish to participate in the hands-ons.
Lunch and coffee/tea will be provided.
This one day MD course will look at enhanced sampling, with a focus on NAMD. During the afternoon there will be a hands-on where you get the opportunity to run a NAMD job at HPC2N.
Topics: Molecular Dynamics Simulations, Enhanced Sampling (Metadynamics and Accelerated Molecular Dynamics), NAMD at HPC2N.
Participation is free. Bring your laptop for the hands-on!
Lunch and afternoon coffee will be provided.
Time and date: 26 February, 2018. 10:00 - 16:30
We begin with a short introduction to Linux, which is what is used on HPC2N's compute clusters. This part is only meant for complete beginners to the Linux operating system, and can be omitted. See the schedule.
This one day course is an introduction to using the Kebnekaise accelerators. We will look at GPU-enabled applications, as well as OpenMP, and OpenACC.
There will be a hands-on, so bring your laptop.
Participation is free and open to all existing and prospective users of HPC from Swedish institutions. Lunch and afternoon coffee will be provided.
Location: MA378
Time and date: 2017-12-12, 10:00-16:30
High Performance Computing Center North cordially invites you to participate in the celebration of Kebnekaise, the latest HPC2N supercomputer system. The morning program offers a tutorial and the afternoon program includes presentations by scientists using Kebnekaise, a poster session, and the more formal celebration of Kebnekaise.
The procurement of Kebnekaise was made possible through a grant from both the Swedish National Infrastructure for Computing (SNIC) and Umeå University.
This one day course is an introduction to Computational Chemistry and MD Simulations, with half of the time dedicated to running NAMD at HPC2N. There will be a hands-on.
Participation is free. Bring your laptop for the hands-on!
The hands-on will be done on HPC2N's systems, so you will need to have an account at HPC2N (or create one when added to the course project) in order to participate in that part.
Lunch and afternoon coffee will be provided.
The SNIC Science Cloud (SSC) is a community cloud for research within Swedish academia and use of the resources is free of charge to Swedish
PIs and their collaborators.
We would like to invite all interested current and future users to a training workshop on introductory level at HPC2N, Umeå, 10:00-16:00 on
the 10th of October.
Date: 11-12 October, 2017
Place: Lecture room MA 121 in the MIT building at Umeå University
GENERAL INFORMATION
FIRM deadline for registration is Monday, September 25, 2017 at 12 hrs.
Late registrations will be subject to availability.
A CodeRefinery Workshop in Umeå, in collaboration with HPC2N. The aim of this course is to demonstrate and familiarize the workshop participants with version control systems, specifically Git. Both introductory and more advanced topics will be covered. Research code is often developed in a collaborative setting, and we will discuss tools and workflows which facilitate this process. However, most of the content is also relevant to a single developer.
Date: 2017-10-16
Time: 09:00 - 17:00
