| 17 Jun 1:30 pm 4:30 pmRunning programs on the supercomputers is done via the BASH shell. This course is two three hour live demos on using bash. No prior familiarity with bash is assumed. In addition to the basics of getting around, globbing, regular expressions, redirection, pipes, and scripting will be covered. A series of exercises are required to be done in order to complete the course. Level: Introductory Length: Two 3-Hour Sessions Format: Lecture + Hands-on Prerequisites: None (part of the 2024 Compute Ontario Summer School) Virtual | COSS2024 |
| 18 Jun 9:00 am 12:00 pmModern C++ is an efficient, versatile programming language. This workshop will focus on the following in both sequential and parallel contexts: using pseudo-random number generators, making use of reduction options using underlying sequential code, making simple use of in-situ code benchmarking/profiling, and, using mdspan for accessing multi-dimensional arrays and multi-dimensional array slices (submdspan). By the end of these sessions, one will have learnt about sequential and parallel uses of: C++ pseudo-random number generators and their use, C++ std::reduce(), std::transform_reduce(), etc. and C++ parallel algorithms and some of their uses and caveats, using std::chrono facilities, e.g., for in-situ benchmarks, and, how to use multi-dimensional arrays and slices in C++ code. Level: Intermediate Length: Four 3-Hour Sessions (2 Days) Format: Lecture + Hands-on Prerequisites: Experience developing sequential code in C++. (The C++ programming language is not the C programming language. Experience is expected programming in C++, e.g., using the standard library's containers, iterators, and algorithms.)

| 18 Jun 1:30 pm 4:30 pmThis is an introductory course covering programming and computing on GPUs - graphics processing units - which are an increasingly common presence in massively parallel computing architectures. The basics of GPU programming will be covered, and students will work through a number of hands on examples. The structuring of data and computations that makes full use of the GPU will be discussed in detail. Students should be able to leave the course with the knowledge necessary to begin developing their own GPU applications. Level: Introductory Length: Six 3-Hour Sessions (3 Days) Format: Lecture + Hands-on Prerequisites: Alliance Account Basic C and/or C++ experience (part of the 2024 Compute Ontario Summer School) Virtual | COSS2024 |
