This Kokkos workshop is open to developers of ECP applications and software-technology projects who are already using Kokkos and want to port their code to next generation architectures and/or further optimize their code. Attendees are expected to already have some level of experience with Kokkos. The training will focus on performance and will teach attendees how to use Kokkos Tools to profile, tune, and debug code. The first session will cover new features that were added in the recent past. The second session will be hands-on with members of the Kokkos team helping application developers with their own codes.
