This event will bring together developers, researchers, and enthusiasts from diverse backgrounds to collaborate, learn, and innovate.\r\n\r\nFor a brief description of these libraries, see below.\r\n\r\n## What to Expect:\r\n\r\n* Hands-on Tutorials: Participate in guided, hands-on sessions to set up your environment and run your first alpaka and openPMD applications.\r\n* Engagement with Experts: Engage with leading experts of these libraries who will share insights, best practices, tips and their experiences.\r\n\r\n## What we will cover:\r\n\r\n* Introduction to alpaka: Learn about the alpaka library, its architecture, and how it enables portable and performant parallel programming across various hardware backends.\r\n* Optimizing with alpaka: Discover advanced techniques for optimizing kernels and managing memory in alpaka to achieve maximum performance.\r\n* Getting Started with openPMD: Dive into the openPMD standard, exploring how it facilitates scalable I/O for scientific data in simulations and experiments.\r\n* Integrating openPMD with Simulation Codes: Learn best practices for integrating openPMD with your existing simulation frameworks and how to leverage its full potential.\r\n* Showcasing use of alpaka and openPMD with PIConGPU: PIConGPU is a user of both these libraries and leverages them to do exascale simulations. Take a short look inside PIConGPU to see how these libraries are used in a large project and run a test simulation with PIconGPU.\r\n \r\nJoin us for an engaging and productive event where innovation meets collaboration. Whether you are new to alpaka and openPMD or an experienced user, this workshop and hackathon will provide valuable insights and opportunities to advance your skills and projects and at the end you will be ready to use these powerful libraries in your own projects.\r\n\r\nRegister now to secure your spot. We look forward to seeing you there!","start":"2024-10-23T09:00:00.000Z","end":"2024-10-25T00:00:00.000Z","sponsors":[],"venue":"","city":"Dresden","county":"Saxony","country":"Germany","postcode":"","latitude":"51.057047","longitude":"13.939064","created_at":"2024-07-01T12:32:53.836Z","updated_at":"2024-07-02T12:34:33.458Z","source":"tess","slug":"alpaka-and-openpmd-workshop-hackathon","content_provider_id":1,"deliverable":"","user_id":2,"online":false,"cost":null,"for_profit":false,"last_scraped":null,"scraper_record":false,"keywords":["openPMD","alpaka","high-performance computing","HPC","PIConGPU"],"event_types":[],"target_audience":[],"capacity":null,"eligibility":[],"contact":"","host_institutions":["HZDR"],"scientific_topics":[],"nodes":[],"external_resources":[]}
