We are pleased to announce an invited talk by Benjamin Huth from the University of Regensburg about "Vectorized matrix-multiplication on the NEC SX-Aurora." The NEC SX-Aurora "Tsubasa" is NEC's latest vector processor architecture. Last year, RRZE has acquired a system with two "Tsubasa" vector a...

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...

Science Node, a free online publication developed in collaboration with organizations in the US and Europe, has featured an article with and about Moritz Kreutzer, our recent PhD graduate and SPPEXA PhD Award winner, focusing on his work with performance engineering for sparse linear algebra: https:...

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...
