Titan Users and Developers Workshop (East Coast) and Users Meeting
*****Registration deadline is January 2, 2013*****
The Oak Ridge Leadership Computational Facility (OLCF) invites you to Knoxville, TN, for the Titan Users and Developers Workshop (East Coast) and Users Meeting being conducted on February 19-21, 2013. The goal of this three day event is to provide intense hands-on training to Titan users and developers. Topics will cover everything you need to run on Titan from basic utilization of the Oak Ridge leadership-class resources, to advanced GPGPU programming techniques.
Sessions are organized by increasing expertise from basic access and best practices, to parallelization techniques and accelerator programming models for Titan. Topics also include Parallelization and debugging techniques, Scientific Libraries, OpenACC, Cuda, OpenCL, Cuda Fortran, etc. Experts from the OLCF will also be on hand to assist you and answer your questions on high-performance computing. Attendance to all three days is highly encouraged.
On-site registration for this event is limited to 50 people, on a first-come first-serve basis. Due to recent travel restrictions, we must limit attendance to 30 DOE funded individuals. Please register early to secure a spot! If you are unable to attend this workshop on site, please consider attending the training session via WebEx which are simultaneously webcast.
The workshop will be held at the Hilton Knoxville Hotel, Knoxville, TN. You will pick up your badges at the registration desk in front of Salon DE on the 2nd floor. Please remember to bring photo ID.
