Dear NERSC users, Below is another upcoming training event starting in May that you are encouraged to attend. *12) OpenMP Training Series, May - October 2024* The OpenMP training series presented by Michael Klemm of AMD the OpenMP ARB, and Christian Terboven of RWTH Aachen University, is part of the Performance Portability training series <https://www.nersc.gov/performance-portability-series-2023-2024/>. OpenMP is a portable programming model supported by multiple scientific compilers on CPU and GPU architectures. This monthly OpenMP training series offered from May to October 2024 will cover topics including OpenMP basics, parallel worksharing, tasking, memory management and affinity, vectorization, GPU offloading, and MPI/OpenMP hybrid programming. The format of each training session will be presentations followed by homework assignments. Homework solutions will be reviewed at the beginning of the next session. For detailed session dates and topics, and to register, please visit https://www.nersc.gov/openmp-training-series-may-oct-2024/.
