Objectives
- Get a comprehensive view of the architecture of the heterogeneous ARM-based platforms deployed in the framework of the Mont-Blanc project, including ARM multicore clusters based on mobile and server technology.
- Understand the challenges associated with large-scale HPC simulations.
- Understand the basic concepts of architectural simulations and introduce the MUlti-scale Simulation Architecture (MUSA), developed within Mont-Blanc 3 for the simulation of next-generation HPC architectures.
- Hands-on and study of a use case using MUSA. Tools for architectural simulation that include a complete software stack for performing architectural simulations at scale of thousands of cores will be made available.
Requirements
- Standard HPC users, with some knowledge in computer architecture (recommended, but not required).
- BSc (or higher) degree in science or engineering with basic knowledge in parallel computing.
- There will be a hands-on session, therefore attendees should bring their own laptop.
Academic Staff
- Adriá Armejach - post-doc at the Barcelona Supercomputing Center (BSC).
- Marc Casas - senior researcher at the Barcelona Supercomputing Center (BSC).
- Miquel Moreto - senior researcher at the Barcelona Supercomputing Center (BSC).
- Filippo Mantovani - post-doc at the Barcelona Supercomputing Center (BSC).
