17 Apr 12:00 pm 1:00 pmCO Colloquium "How to Buy a Supercomputer for Scientific Computing"Buying a new supercomputer that both maximises total performance, given our budget, and whose architecture suits our users' workloads is a very difficult balancing act. There are a wide range of decisions to be made, such as: CPU architecture; node count; memory size/bandwidth; GPU count; interconnect type; storage size; filesystem type/bandwidth; cooling type and power budget to name but a few. In order to balance all of these constraints we need to come up with a scoring system to compare potential candidate supercomputers. In this talk we describe the Scalable System Improvement (SSI) metric and apply it to the system refresh of Niagara & Mist. Virtual | COCO - 17 Apr 2024 |

12 Jun 9:00 am 12:00 pmCO Summer School S1: Parallel Computing with MATLABDuring this hands-on workshop, we will introduce parallel and distributed computing in MATLAB with a focus on speeding up application codes and offloading compute. By working through common scenarios and workflows using hands-on demos, you will gain a detailed understanding of the parallel constructs in MATLAB, their capabilities, and some of the common hurdles that you'll encounter when using them. Users will learn: Multithreading vs multiprocessing When to use parfor vs parfeval constructs Creating data queues for data transfer Leveraging NVIDIA GPUs Parallelizing Simulink models Working with large data Level: Intermediate Length: 3 Hours Format: Lecture + Hands-on Prerequisites: Working knowledge of MATLAB (part of the 2024 Compute Ontario Summer School) Virtual | COSS2024 |
