About the Workshop
The National Supercomputing Mission (NSM) has successfully deployed High-Performance Computing (HPC) systems equipped with GPU accelerators at various institutes across the country. These systems offer tremendous computational power, but one of the challenges faced by users is the efficient utilization of the available resources.
In continuation of the previous year’s initiatives, we are excited to announce a domain-specific workshop aimed at exploring the optimization and parallelization techniques for applications running on HPC systems. This workshop will specifically focus on executing user-specific input runs within widely used HPC domains. It presents a unique opportunity for participants to gain hands-on experience with the computational resources available and optimize their workflows for better performance.
To broaden the program’s scope and equip users with insights into the latest trends and advancements in HPC architectures, problem-solving strategies, and emerging technologies, we have incorporated sessions led by industry leaders such as Intel and AMD.
With this, we invite students, researchers, and HPC enthusiasts to actively participate in the workshop. This platform offers an excellent opportunity to collaborate, learn, and enhance your expertise in leveraging HPC systems to solve complex computational problems effectively.
Topics to be covered
The workshop will cover critical domains such as:
- Molecular Dynamics
- Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD)
- Bio-LLM
- Weather Forecast
- Material Science
- OneAPI, SYCL, SYCLomatic Tool, and OpenMP Offload
- AMD Technologies – Hardware and Software
These domains represent areas where HPC systems have significant applications and require efficient resource management.
