This is the first part of a two-part workshop together with AMD to teach the usage of the MI300A GPU which is employed in our VIPER-GPU supercomputer. On four half-days, experts from AMD will present different topics related to this new APU architecture. Together with exercises on the AMD cloud system, you will learn about HiP and the transfer of a CUDA code to HiP, about using OpenMP TARGET directives for GPU porting in a portable way, standard language constructs and the toolsuite that comes with the ROCM system.The second part will follow the week after with a hackathon where you can bring-in your own codes and we will work on them together to reach porting or performance goals on our VIPER-GPU system. Please register for the two events separately.
In this workshop, experts from AMD and Eviden will focus on the how to port a code from NVIDIA GPUs to MI300A. Knowledge of GPU programming in general is a prerequisite.
