SpinUp: Jan/Feb 2019
Spin is a new Containers-as-a-Service (CaaS) platform at NERSC based on Docker container technology. It can be used to deploy web sites and science gateways, workflow managers, databases and key-value stores, and all sorts of network services that can access NERSC systems and storage on the back end. Spin is currently in a pilot phase as the NERSC Infrastructure Services Group (ISG) refines the underlying systems and tools. See the videos and other information below to learn more about its… Read More »

Workshop DescriptionThe "Applying a “Whack-a-mole” Method using Cray’s perftools to identify the Moles" presentation in the morning will demonstrate some of the new capabilities available with the Cray performance tools, and will cover a recommended process of using the tools to identify key bottlenecks (moles) in… Read More »
Beyond OpenMP Common Core Training, May 4, 2018
Speakers: Timothy Mattson, Intel; Helen He, NERSC Location: Berkeley Lab, Room 50B-1237. Berkeley, CA Time: 9:00am - 5:00pm PDT, May 4, 2018. Tutorial DescriptionMost OpenMP programmers use only about 19 items from the language. We call these 19 items “the OpenMP Common Core”. Programmers may spend their entire OpenMP programming careers safely inside the common core. Well rounded OpenMP programmers, however, should be aware of what lays just beyond the common… Read More »

OpenMP Common Core: February 2018
DescriptionOpenMP is the de facto standard for writing parallel applications for shared memory computers. Over 20 years of the development, with a specification over 350 pages now, OpenMP has grown into an intimidating API viewed by many as for “experts only”.Most OpenMP programmers, however, use around 19 items from the specification. We call these 19 items the “OpenMP Common Core”. By focusing on the common core, we make OpenMP what it was always meant to be; an easy API for parallel… Read More »
