NCSA is hosting a bring-your-own-code workshop on Effective Use of the TeraGrid's Multi-core Systems on Aug. 5-7, 2008, in Urbana-Champaign, Illinois.

This workshop will provide current users of the TeraGrid's multi-core systems an understanding of multi-core technology and how to leverage it to accelerate their science and engineering research. Topics presented will include an overview of multi-core performance issues, performance tuning examples, and lessons learned. In addition, NCSA consulting and application support staff will provide hands-on assistance to participants to help them port and tune their applications on the multi-core systems.

This workshop will be limited to 20 competitively selected participants. Preference will be given to current TeraGrid users with allocations on systems with multi-core processors (e.g. Abe, Big Red, Ranger) and application code and sample data available for testing and tuning during the workshop.
