Course: An introduction to shared memory parallel programming using OpenMP, 9 - 12 March 2021

An introduction to shared memory parallel programming using OpenMP, 9 - 12 March 2021

This online course is given in cooperation between HPC2N and LUNARC.

OpenMP provides an efficient method to write parallel programs in C, C++ and Fortran.  OpenMP programs are suitable for execution on shared memory architectures such as modern multi core systems or a single compute node of the HPC clusters deployed by Lunarc and within SNIC.

This course will introduce participants to the shared-memory model for parallel programming and the OpenMP application-programming interface.  In many cases OpenMP allows an existing serial program to be upgraded incrementally, starting with the parallelisation of the most time-consuming parts of the code.  Typically OpenMP programs are easily ported from one shared memory multi processor system to another one.
