The UCL Centre for Advanced Research Computing is hosting a 4-day Julia for High-Performance Computing (HPC) training course, from February 13th to February 16th 2024.
Starting from the fundamentals of the language, the workshop will go into the details of how to effectively write high-performance code in Julia using task-based multi-threading, distributed computing and MPI, while also avoiding common pitfalls. Attendees will also learn how to offload computations to NVIDIA GPUs in Julia.
The course will be delivered by @carstenbauer who has extensive experience in running courses on this topic.
Registration
Registration is free of charge, but tickets are running out very quickly. However, we strongly encourage to join the waiting list, as more seats may be available later.
Travel support
We have limited availability to fund travel of people who would not otherwise be able to attend the workshop. We can provide refund for travel, accommodation and subsistence for attendees based outside of London. In any case refund is limited to £1,000 per person and will have to follow UCL Expenses policy, get in touch with me for more details. We particularly welcome applications from people belonging to underrepresented groups (e.g. gender, ethnicity, etc.) in the numerical computing and HPC domains. The outcome of this application will be notified by the end of December 2023 (likely in the next couple of weeks).
