Dear NERSC users, There is another training event in April that you are encouraged to attend: 3) Codee Training Series: Write Accelerated Code at Expert Level, April 25-26 Appentra's Codee Analyzer is a programming development tool for C/C++/Fortran parallel codes on multicore CPUs and GPUs using OpenMP and OpenACC. One great feature of *the Codee Analyzer Tool is that it can automatically insert OpenMP or OpenACC directives in your codes* to run on CPUs or offload to accelerator devices such as GPUs, so that novice programmers can write codes at the expert level. This programming developer tool also provides code inspections for debugging and improving OpenMP/OpenACC programming on GPUs with a systematic, more predictable approach that leverages parallel programming best practices. Join NERSC on April 25 & 26 as Codee staff present a 2-part training series intended to help new and experienced programmers to understand best practices for CPU and GPU programming using OpenMP and OpenACC. This training event will be held online using Zoom. Part one will include a quick presentation of the Codee command-line tools using as a guide several well-known C/C++/Fortran codes that can be accelerated on CPU and GPU through the tips documented in the open catalog of performance optimization best practices available on the Codee website. The session will consist of short demos and hands-on exercises with step-by-step guides on Perlmutter. Part two will showcase the Codee command line tools using MBedTLS (a library of cryptographic codes) and ZPIC (a particle-in-cell code), focusing on CPU and GPU programming challenges that appear frequently in real scientific and engineering applications. Users can also bring their own codes to explore using Codee for Part 2. For more information and to register please see https://www.nersc.gov/users/training/events/codee-training-series-apr2023/.
