There are only a few seats available, so be quick. Participation is free of charge for members of European universities and public resea... 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 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... 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

Through the kind support of KONWIHR, the Competence Network for Scientific High Performance Computing in Bavaria, we are able to offer a five-day C++ training for beginners at RRZE. The focus of the course is on the introduction of the essential language features and the syntax of C++. Additionally,... 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
