Hej Jyrki

Jeg var på dette kursus for et par år siden og det var ok spændende, så
jeg tænkte at det måske var noget for dig. Det er sendt som en invitation
til mig, men hvis du spørger som videnskabelig medarbejder kan du sikkert
få lov at deltage :)

Det er selvfølgelig lidt pro-sun, men der er også en del generelle
arkitekturting. Det kan selvfølgelig være du ved det hele i forvejen :)
Jeg fandt det ihvertfald ret godt og foredragsholderen ved virkelig hvad
han snakker om.

Subject: Sun Application Tuning Seminar, June 10-13

Have you wanted to know more about how to optimize a technical, scientific
application for a modern RISC microprocessor? Are you interested in
learning about shared memory parallelization? Now is the time to learn:

	The Sun Application Tuning Seminar

	Date:       Tuesday June 10–Friday June 13, 2003
	Time:       Tuesday:              12:00–16:30
                    Wednesday & Thursday: 09:00–16:30
                    Friday:               09:00–12:30
	Location:   IMM — DTU, building 321, room 053

This 3 day seminar will be given by Ruud van der Pas, one of the
performance specialists in the Sun HPC team, and hosted by DTU.

Registration is mandatory!  For details see below or the HPC webpages
at http://www.hpc.dtu.dk/.

Details:

The seminar will focus on Sun's UltraSPARC III processor family, but
also provides information that is generally applicable. The following
topics will be covered in detail:

    * The memory hierarchy in cache based systems
    * The following Studio ONE Compiler Collection components:
          + The Fortran and C compilers
          + The Performance Library
          + The Performance Analyzer
    * Microprocessor and server architectures
    * Serial optimization techniques
    * Modulo Scheduling
    * Case Studies Serial Optimization
    * Introduction into Parallelization
    * Shared Memory Parallelization
          + Data Dependency Analysis
          + Automatic Parallelization
          + Explicit Parallelization using OpenMP
          + Tuning OpenMP applications
          + OpenMP Case Studies

You will have time to experiment with the information and techniques
presented during labs.

Attendees should be comfortable with C or Fortran programming and
interested in learning more about the technical details of application
tuning. Although there is no special coverage of C++ and the examples
are in C and/or Fortran, C++ programmers will certainly benefit from
this course as well.

More detailed information about this seminar, i.e. the detailed
agenda and a more detailed overview is provided at the HPC website
http://www.hpc.dtu.dk/.
