PUMPS Summer School, July 7-11, 2014
The Barcelona Supercomputing Center (BSC) in association with Universitat Politecnica de Catalunya (UPC) has been awarded by NVIDIA as a CUDA Center of Excellence (CCOE). BSC and UPC currently offer a number of courses covering CUDA architecture and programming languages for parallel computing. Please contact us for possible collaborations.
The fifth edition of the Programming and Tuning Massively Parallel Systems summer school (PUMPS) is aimed at enriching the skills of researchers, graduate students and teachers with cutting-edge technique and hands-on experience in developing applications for many-core processors with massively parallel computing resources like GPU accelerators.
Location: Barcelona Supercomputing Center, Computer Architecture Dept. at Universitat Politecnica de Catalunya, Barcelona, Spain

Distinguished Teachers: Wen-mei Hwu (Sanders III-Advanced Micro Devices Endowed Chair in Electrical and Computer Engineering in the Coordinated Science Laboratory of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign) and David Kirk (NVIDIA Fellow, former Chief Scientist, NVIDIA Corporation )
BSC and UPC: Rosa Badia, Xavier Martorell, Nacho Navarro
Teaching Assistants: Javier Cabezas, Abdul Dakkak, Marc Jorda, Pau Farre, Diego Marron, Judit Planas, Xavier Teruel, Guillermo Miranda, Sergi Mateo
Preliminary Overview
Registration for the course is free. We expect our sponsors will cover academic applicants' marginal expenses such as meals. Applicants from non-academic institutions (companies) , please contact us at bcw2014@bcw.ac.upc.edu for sponsorship possibilities.
Programming Languages: CUDA, MPI, OmpSs, OpenCL
Hands-on Labs: Afternoon labs with teaching assistants for each audience/level.
Participants are expected to bring their own laptops to access the servers with GPU accelerators.
The afternoon lab sessions will provide hands-on experience with various languages and tools covered in the lectures and will comprise a brief introduction to the programming assignments, followed by independent work periods. Teaching assistants will be available in person and on the web to help with assignments.
Attendees will have access to the BSC Supercomputer MinoTauro (Cluster of 128 Bull B505 blades with 2 M2090 NVIDIA GPU cards each).
