Our paper "Performance Engineering for a Tall & Skinny Matrix Multiplication Kernel on GPUs" by Dominik Ernst, Georg Hager, Jonas Thies, and Gerhard Wellein just received the best paper award at PPAM 2019, the 13th International Conference on Parallel Processing and Applied Mathematics, in Bialy... Continue

On Tuesday, September 10th at 4 p.m., the first HPC Café will take place. The HPC Café is a new offering to complement our established contact channels and training offerings. Every second Tuesday of the month this is an opportunity to to get to know each other. On demand we will offer short talks a... Continue

Our PhD student Christie Louis Alappat, by winning the ACM Student Research Competition (SRC) at SC18 at the graduate level last year, has advanced to the ACM SRC Grand Finals, where the winners from 26 ACM conferences contend for the Grand Prize. For this last round he had to prepare a five-page pa... Continue

We are pleased to announce that Georg Hager will conduct our successful one-day tutorial on "Node-Level Performance Engineering" at the Politecnico di Torino in Turin, Italy, on May 31. The tutorial is the most successful teaching activity of our group and was presented at numerous venues around the... Continue

The Bandwidth Benchmark is a collection of simple streaming kernels. While it may be used for microbenchmarking, we mainly want to use it in teaching. It is heavily inspired by John McCalpin's STREAM benchmark. It comprises eight typical streaming kernels with different data access patterns for m... Continue

LIKWID 4.3.4 is a bugfix release. These are the relevant changes: For systems using Intel Cluster-on-Die (CoD) or Sub-NUMA Clustering (SNC): Fix for detecting PCI devices Workaround for topology detection. The Linux kernel does not detect it properly sometimes. Don't pin accessDa... Continue

If you work at FAU and are interested in HPC resources, members of RRZE HPC Services are able and willing to come to your chair or research group and give you a quick intro to HPC for beginners, with some focus on RRZE systems. We can adapt the depth of the talk according to your needs. Please conta... Continue

Our PhD student Christie Louis Alappat just took first place in the ACM Student Research Competition at SC18. His work revolved around the "Recursive Algebraic Coloring Engine," which is a new method and library for hardware-efficient graph coloring. This means that he will advance to the grand ... Continue

This year at SC18 in Dallas, TX, members of our group will be part of numerous contributions: Christie Louis Alappat will present a poster in the "ACM Student Research Competition," titled "Recursive Algebraic Coloring Engine." Julian Hammer will present a poster in the "ACM Student Research... Continue

The eighth HPC-Status-Konferenz of Gauß-Allianz will take place at RRZE in Erlangen on October 8 and 9, 2018. The annual HPC-Status-Konferenz offers scientists and practitioners the opportunity for interdisciplinary exchange in the field of recent research and all questions regarding High Perform... Continue
