Description:
The aim of this workshop is to deliver a "traning on the job" school based on a class of selected numerical methods for parallel Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD).
The workshop aims to share the methodologies, numerical methods and their implementation used by the state-of-the-art numerical codes used on hybrid multi-many core High Performance Computing (HPC) clusters.
The lectures will present the challenges of numerically solving Partial Differential Equations (PDE) in problems related to fluid-dynamics, using massively parallel clusters.
The lectures will give a step-by-step walk through the numerical methods and their parallel aspects, starting from a serial code up to scalablity on clusters,
including strategies for parallelization (MPI, OpenMPI, GPUs, plug-in of numerical libraries,....) with hands-on during the lectures.
Profiling and optimization techiques on standard and heterogeneous clusters will be shown during the school.
Due to actual circumstances, this year the school will be fully virtual. The duration is extended from original one week up to two weeks, with morning lessons and free afternoons.
Final Agenda will be published upon confirmation of the speakers.
Duration: two weeks, 30 Nov. 11 Dec. Morning Lessons (CET Time)
The first week (30 Nov - 4 Dec) will be performed in collaboration with PRACE.
The second week (4 Dec-11 Dec) will be performed in collaboration with Excellerat Centre of Excellence
