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...

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...

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...

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...

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...

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 ...

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...

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...

Our popular "Node-Level Performance Engineering" full-day tutorial has been accepted again (now the seventh time in a row!) for presentation at SC18, the International Conference for High Performance Computing, Networking, Storage and Analysis. We teach the basics of node-level computer architecture...

The Gauss Award is sponsored by the Gauss Centre for Supercomputing (GCS), which is a collaboration of the German national supercomputing centers at Garching, Jülich and Stuttgart. The winner receives a cash prize of 3,000 €, courtesy of the Gauss Center, which is traditionally presented during the ...
