Introduction to High-Performance Parallel Distributed Computing Using Chapel, UPC++ and Coarray Fortran, July 2023
IntroductionECP, NERSC, and OLCF are jointly hosting the two-day virtual hands-on training on PGAS programming models: Chapel, UPC++, and Coarray Fortran, July 26-27, 2023.A majority of HPC system users use scripting languages such as Python to prototype their computations, coordinate their large executions, and analyze the data resulting from their computations. Python is great for these many uses, but it frequently falls short when significantly scaling up the amount of data and computation,… Read More »
