HPC Training – November 4 to 6, 2026
This three-half-day program is aimed at HPC scientists, researchers, and practitioners who want to port, optimize, and profile their codes on AMD systems.
Program highlights:
- Day 1 (Beginner): HIP and ROCm introduction, OpenMP offloading, profiling basics.
- Days 2–3 (Advanced): advanced HIP/OpenMP, GPU-aware MPI, performance portability frameworks, AMD profiling tools, latest utilities (trace decoder, advanced profilers).
- Each module includes hands-on exercises.
Audience: researchers and engineers from academia or industry with prior HPC experience.
Prerequisites: Linux command-line, HPC software stack familiarity, compiling/running codes on HPC systems.
What you will learn:
- Port applications from CPU or other vendor GPUs to run on AMD GPUs.
- Understanding the ROCm SDK and what it provides
- What programming languages can be used for AMD GPUs (HIP, OpenMP, etc.)
- Optimizing and scaling GPU applications
- Communication packages including MPI, RCCL and rocSHMEM
- Profiling and debugging tools for AMD GPUs
This training will equip participants with the skills to efficiently exploit AMD GPUs and CPUs for high-performance workloads.
Format: Online: remote participants will access AMD infrastructures via the AMD Accelerator Cloud.
