-The CHPC has several Intel Xeon Phi co-processor cards and sees them as an essential component to achieving high performance with power efficiency.  Capable of supporting 240 threads in an 8GB shared memory environment with powerful 512 bit vector arithmetic, a Phi packs 1 teraflop of HPC peformance into a single accelerator.  Programming for the Phi can be challenging to incorperate all its features to achieve the maximum performance.  For this reason the CHPC is hosting a dedicated programming course covering the Phi and the Intel compiler and tool chain to support development of faster HPC code.+The CHPC has several Intel Xeon Phi co-processor cards and sees them as an essential component to achieving high performance with power efficiency.  Capable of supporting 240 threads in an 8GB shared memory environment with powerful 512 bit vector arithmetic, a Phi packs 1 teraflop of HPC peformance into a single accelerator.  Programming for the Phi can be challenging to incorporate all its features to achieve the maximum performance.  For this reason the CHPC is hosting a dedicated programming course covering the Phi and the Intel compiler and tool chain to support development of fast HPC code.

 +//Martin Hilgeman joined Dell in 2011, where he is a technical lead for the HPC benchmarking group. His particular specialities are in application optimisation, accelerators, architecture considerations for task placement, MPI single-sided messaging and optimisation of collectives. Previously he worked at SGI for 11 years as a consultant and member of the technical staff in the applications engineering group, where his main involvement was in porting, optimisation and parallelisation of computational chemistry and material sciences applications for MIPS, Intel Itanium 2 and Intel em64t platforms. Martin has an advanced master's degree in Physical and Organic chemistry from the VU University of Amsterdam.//
