Dear Madam or Sir / Sehr geehrte Damen und Herren,

Strong scaling is still a real problem in HPC.

Therefore, we provide the second time this course on HPX, 
which implements a lightweight threading model that allows 
both concurrent, asynchronous, parallel and distributed 
programming constructs.

Please, can you pass this HPX course announcement also to interested
colleagues.  / Es waere schoen, wenn Sie diese Ankuendigung
auch an interessierte Kollegen weitergeben koennten.

Kind regards / Mit freundlichen Gruessen
Rolf Rabenseifner, Lucienne Dettki and Jose Gracia

        Introduction to Parallel Programming with HPX
                  March 15-16, 2018 (Thu-Fri)
  at HLRS, room Ruehle-Saal, Nobelstr. 19, Stuttgart, Germany


Registration and further information:

             http://www.hlrs.de/training/2018/HPX

The aim of this course is to introduce participants to the HPX library
and demonstrate how it can be used to write task based programs.
The HPX library implements a lightweight threading model that allows
both concurrent, asynchronous, parallel and distributed programming
constructs to coexist within the same application with a consistent API
based on C++ standards and using futures to synchronize between tasks.

The course is aimed at participants with a good understanding of C++.
The material covered will include
 - an introduction to the HPX programming model,
 - asynchronous programming concepts, execution policies and executors,
 - parallel algorithms using tasks (including the parallel STL),
 - writing distributed applications with HPX,
 - profiling and debugging, and
 - a final section introducing heterogeneous programming
   using targets for GPU devices.

Objective: The attendee will gain an understanding of the
           HPX library and task based programming in general.

Lectures will be given by
 - Thomas Heller, FAU Erlangen-Nuremberg,
 - John Biddiscombe, CSCS,

Registration deadline: Feb. 18, 2018.

The course language is English.
All slides and handouts are also in English.

Kind regards
Rolf Rabenseifner (HLRS)
