NERSCPowering Scientific Discovery for 50 Years

Intel Compilers, Tools, and Libraries Training, March 6, 2018

March 6, 2018

NERSC will host a training event for users about Intel compilers, tools, and libraries on Tuesday, March 6, 2018.  The main presenters will be from Intel.  The training will be held at Building 59, Room 3101 (CRT Building, aka Wang Hall).

Note: There is a Cori KNL Hackathon on the following day that we strongly suggest you to register as well, so that you can directly apply the information learned here towards the improving your application performance on Cori KNL.
