Join Research Infrastructure Services (RIS) in this hands-on training session: Introduction to Parallel Computing using C and OpenMP. This workshop is designed to take you from serial programming to writing efficient, multi-threaded applications.

Prerequisites: You must have familiarity with the Linux command line and Active RIS compute allocation. 

What you’ll learn: 

• The Fundamentals: Understanding shared memory systems. 

• Directive-Based Programming: How to use #pragma omp to parallelize loops effortlessly. 

• Synchronization: Handling data races and using barriers. 

• Performance Tuning: Identifying bottlenecks in your C code. 

Why attend: 

As datasets grow, serial computing is no longer enough. Mastering OpenMP allows you to scale your research and make the most of our center’s high-performance resources.

Registration required. This training will take place on Zoom; you will automatically receive a calendar invite that includes the Zoom link after registration.
