Event Description
Date: 09/Jul/2026 Time: 09:30 - 19:00 Place: C6-E101, UPC Campus Nord, Barcelona Target group: The target audiences of the course are students who want to develop exciting applications for these processors, as well as those who want to develop programming tools and future implementations for these processors.
Objectives This is an expansion of the topic “OpenACC and other approaches to GPU computing” covered on last years editions of the Introduction to CUDA Programming. This course is delivered by the GPU Center of Excellence (GCOE) awarded by NVIDIA to the Barcelona Supercomputing Center (BSC) in association with Universitat Politecnica de Catalunya (UPC). It will provide very good introduction to the PUMPS Summer School run jointly with NVIDIA - In the following link, you will find more information about the PUMPS Summer School 2025.
As an NVIDIA GPU Center of Excellence, BSC and UPC are deeply involved in research and outreach activities around GPU Computing. OpenACC is a high-level, directive-based programming model for GPU computing. It is a very convenient language to leverage the GPU power with minimal code modifications, being the preferred option for non computer scientists. This course will cover the necessary topics to get started with GPU programming in OpenACC, as well as some advanced topics.
Requirements Level: BEGINNERS: for trainees from different background or very little knowledge.
