Goals
This workshop organised by VI-HPS and CINECA will:
- give an overview of the VI-HPS programming tools suite
- explain the functionality of individual tools, and how to use them effectively
- offer hands-on experience and expert assistance using the tools
Programme Overview
Presentations and hands-on sessions are planned on the following topics:
- Setting up, welcome and introduction
- TAU performance system
- Score-P instrumentation and measurement
- Scalasca automated trace analysis
- Vampir interactive trace analysis
- Likwid performance tool suite
- ... and potentially others to be added
A brief overview of the capabilities of these and associated tools is provided in the VI-HPS Tools Guide.
The workshop will be held in English and run from 09:00 to not later than 18:00 each day, with breaks.

Hardware and Software Platforms
MARCONI100: IBM Power9 Linux modular cluster system:
- 2x16 cores IBM POWER9 AC922 at 3.1 GHz with 256 GB/node of RAM memory
- 4 x NVIDIA Volta V100 GPUs per node, Nvlink 2.0, 16GB
The local HPC system MARCONI100 is the primary platform for the workshop and will be used for the hands-on exercises. Course accounts will be provided during the workshop to participants without existing accounts. Other systems where up-to-date versions of the tools are installed can also be used when preferred, though support may be limited and participants are expected to already possess user accounts on non-local systems. Regardless of whichever external systems they intend to use, participants should be familiar with the relevant procedures for compiling and running their parallel applications (via batch queues where appropriate).
