With the beginning of 2021, eight National High Performance Computing (NHR) Centers have been established throughout Germany. The three centers in Paderborn (PC2), Erlangen (NHR@FAU), and Berlin (NHR@ZIB) have a joint focus on atomistic simulations and as such form the virtual Atomistic Simulation C...

Dear Symposium participant, with this short note we want to cordially thank you for your interest and participation in the Inauguration Symposium of the NHR Atomistic Simulation Center (ASC)! We were excited to see so many people register for the meeting. Although in the era of Zoom hopping on a...

It is our pleasure to announce a retake of the popular three-day course "Modern C++ Software design" by Dr. Klaus Iglberger. This course is made possible by KONWIHR and NHR@FAU. It will be conducted online via Zoom. Date and time September 29 - October 1, 2021, 9:00 a.m. - 5:00 p.m. Participati...

It is our pleasure to announce the third NHR@FAU Newsletter. The newsletter is a publication that summarizes recent and upcoming events in and around the Erlangen National High Performance Computing Center. Beyond events, every newsletter highlights special or noteworthy achievements by NHR scientis...

In light of our new cluster procurement for NHR@FAU, we ran several benchmarks on both an Intel Xeon "Ice Lake" Platinum 8360Y node (2x 36 cores + SMT) and different NVIDIA GPUs to determine the optimal hardware configuration for our users. For the corresponding host CPUs of the GPUs, please visit o...

On July 27, 2021 we presented an open webinar with lectures and demos/hands-on for the Institute for Advanced Computational Science at Stony Brook University, showcasing the tools likwid-topology, likwid-pin, likwid-perfctr, and OSACA for analyzing the performance of SpMV on the A64FX processor with...

Many of our users at FAU are aware that it is possible to allocate more than one GPU on a TinyGPU node. The reason behind running a calculation on more than one GPU is quite simply a hope for increased performance, since gathering the appropriate amount of data for research is often time consuming. ...

We are happy to announce a talk by Jan Laukemann (Intel Labs) in the NHR PerfLab seminar. Title: ALTO: Adaptive Linearized Storage of Sparse Tensors Abstract: The analysis of high-dimensional sparse data is becoming increasingly popular in many important domains. However, real-world sparse ...

It is our pleasure to announce the first NHR@FAU Newsletter.
