Taking place online from 14th to 17th of February 2023

This four day online course serves as a general comprehensive introduction to the LUMI architecture and programming environment. It will include lessons about compiling and using software, programming models (HIP and OpenMP offload), porting, executing jobs, and optimizing applications to run on AMD MI250X. After the course you will be able to work efficiently on both the CPU (LUMI-C) as well as GPU partition (LUMI-G).

Event Info

For doing the hands-on exercises and access the slides and training material on the course day, participants will have to join a course specific training project. This project is Puhuri managed which means that CSC users have to set up a new LUMI user account. Step-by-step instructions will be sent out after the registration on how to join the project and set up an account.

The course will be jointly conducted by the LUMI HPE Centre of Excellence (HPE CoE), AMD and the LUMI User Support Team (LUST).

The course is intended for users with ongoing projects on LUMI, users with project proposals in one of the national or EuroHPC channels, and support staff of local organisations of the LUMI consortium members.

We will keep a waiting list if registrations exceed the number of planned participants. The registration deadline is 7. February 2023 16:00 CET. Attendance is free of charge.

Please note, that this is comprehensive course with an emphasis on code development. LUST is also planning an recurring 1-day introduction course to LUMI for March of 2023. It will include lessons about the most important topics needed to install and use software on LUMI and run jobs efficiently on LUMI-C and -G. More information will be published shortly.
