-=====2013 HPC Winter School ===== +To be informed of future workshops or courses please subscribe to the //[[https://lists.chpc.ac.za/sympa/info/chpc-announce|chpc-announce]]// mailing list.
- +
-**1 -- 6 July 2013** at the University of Johannesburg. +
- +
-The **HPC Winter School** is the CHPC's flagship course in //parallel programming// for high performance computing covering: +
- +
-  * Introduction to high performance computing hardware, systems and techniques +
-  * Multi-core programming with OpenMP +
-  * Using message passing (MPI) on cluster super computers +
-  * GPUs as high performance co-processors +
-  * Rapid prototyping for HPC with python +
- +
-The HPC School is now [[workshops:hpcschool|in progress...]] +

-=====GPGPU Computing with CUDA Workshop at UCT===== +
- +
-**Application deadline: 12 April 2013**  Go to [[http://gpu.cs.uct.ac.za/|gpu.cs.uct.ac.za]]. +

-Although originally designed to handle computation for computer graphics, +
-fully programmable Graphical Processing Units (GPUs) now offer a powerful +
-alternative to general purpose computational applications traditionally handled +
-by Central Processing Units (CPUs). As GPUs have overtaken CPUs in sheer +
-processing power, GPU solutions have become particularly attractive for +
-computationally intensive problems, such as data processing and physical +
-simulations. +
- +
-This course covers the practical development of algorithms and associated +
-coding in NVIDIA’s CUDA programming environment for effective general +
-purpose computing with GPUs. +
- +
-The course is aimed at UCT Computer Science Honours (4th year) students. +
-However, we have space for an additional 20 delegates. Application for +
-attendance should comprise a motivation letter and a CV/resume and be +
-emailed to Christopher Laidler (''claidler .AT. cs.uct.ac.za'') by the 12th April 2013. +
- +
-  * **Course Registration fee: R150** (light lunches and tea will be provided) +
