JADE Tier1 system workshop

(This training is part of the Prace Advanced Training Center program)

The aims of this training are :

1. to provide an overview of the existing Hig Performance Computing architectures
2. to introduce the Tier1 supercomputer Jade which is hosted at CINES, as well as the PRACE services offered on this system.

The first part of this training will be a theoretical course about the architecture of supercomputers, parallel programming languages, and the user environment on Jade. The second part will be practice on Jade : we will use some examples to learn how to compile and submit jobs on the cluster, and how to perform some basic optimizations.

Learning outcomes
The participants should become familiar with the HPC architectures and self-reliant with the use of the cluster Jade.
