Nvidia Workshop

Nvidia workshop taught by Nvidia staff.
Free lunch.  Pizza will be provided at Noon.
This workshop will have Nvidia staff present.  You can learn about their technologies particularly with Machine Learning and AI, ask them questions 

Abstract

In this session we will cover some of the most popular and effective GPU accelerated libraries that give high performance without the requirement of writing your own custom GPU code. We will cover CUDA-X which has libraries for math, image/video processing, deep learning, and GPU tailored partner libraries. On top of CUDA-X we will cover RAPIDS which will target data science and data analytics workloads. We will conclude the session with interactive coverage of NVIDIAs profiling tools. We will conclude with a brief coverage of Python specific tools we have like CuPy and Numba for customizable GPU accelerated code. By the end of the workshop, you'll have the skills to utilize existing GPU accelerated libraries and write your own Python codes with NVIDIA GPUs!

Learning Objectives:

• Introduce RAPIDS and CUDA-X for drop-in GPU-accelerated libraries
• Introduce CuPy and Numba for GPU accelerated Python code 

The Data Science Institute is a UArizona organization that provides training, support services, and connections for those in the computing/data science community:

The Data Science Institute facilitates collaboration across an increasingly diverse and active Data Science community by providing workforce development, essential technological assistance, and training to University partners. Formerly Data7, the Data Science Institute aims to foster the next generation of data-driven research by encouraging university-wide interdisciplinary collaboration, gaining external visibility, developing industry alliances, and increasing funding for research at the University of Arizona (UA).

Singularity Training

Singularity containers let users run applications in a Linux environment of their choosing.  This is different from Docker which is not appropriate for HPC due to security concerns.  Singularity is like a container for Docker images, but is not just for Docker.  

The most important thing to know is that you create the singularity container called an image on a workstation where you have root privileges, and then transfer the image to HPC where you can execute the image. If root authority is an issue then the answer might be a virtual environmen t on your laptop, like Vagrant for MacOS

For an overview and more detailed information refer to:
Singularity Quick Start

Here are some of the use cases we support using Singularity:

• Portability and reproducibility
• You already use Docker and want to run your jobs on HPC
• You want to preserve your environment so that a system change will not affect your work
• You need newer or different libraries than are offered on HPC systems
• Someone else developed the workflow using a different version of linux
• You prefer to use something other than Red Hat / CentOS, like Ubuntu 

Introduction to OpenMP

This PDF file is a presentation from a series called Xsede * HPC Workshop.

* XSEDE, the Extreme Science and Engineering Discovery Environment, is the most advanced, powerful, and robust collection of integrated digital resources and services in the world. It is a single virtual system that scientists and researchers can use to interactively share computing resources, data, and expertise. XSEDE integrates the resources and services, makes them easier to use, and helps more people use them.
