 S\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOn clusters and distributed memory architectures\, parall
 el programming with the Message Passing Interface (MPI) is the dominating 
 programming model. This 4 half-days course teaches parallel programming wi
 th MPI starting from a beginners level. Hands-on sessions (in C\, Fortran\
 , and Python) allow to immediately test and understand the basic construct
 s of the Message Passing Interface (MPI).\nAgenda & Content\nSee Agenda & 
 Content in the left menu for a detailed timetable and course content.\nCon
 tent level\nContent level: Basic = 8:00h (50%) + Intermediate = 6:00h (37%
 ) + Advanced = 2:00h (13%)\nEntry level & prerequisites\nBasic/beginner 
 – no prior MPI knowledge is required\, in the course we'll take you from
  0–100%.\nBeing able to program in either C/C++ or Fortran or Python.\nK
 now how to work on the Linux command line – if hands-on labs are done on
  one of the ASC systems.\nTarget audience\nCourse for academia\, industry\
 , and public administration.\nSee further below for eligibility and prices
 .\nCourse format\nThis course will be delivered in HYBRID format\, i.e.\, 
 you can choose either in-person attendance at TU Wien\, Austria or online
  participation via Zoom.\nHowever\, in-person participation is recommended
  for a better learning experience as it will allow you to get the most of 
 the course\, to interact closely with the lecturer during the lectures and
  hands-on labs – simply to learn more!\nHands-on labs\nAll participants 
 will get a temporary user account on one of the ASC systems to do the hand
 s-on labs.\nPlease bring your laptop (with a properly configured eduroam f
 or the in-person participants) to connect to ASC for the hands-on labs. Yo
 u will use your own laptop or workstation to connect conveniently from you
 r browser to the ASC Jupyterhub and do the hands-on exercises on a suitabl
 e CPU or GPU partition of the ASC.\nAlternatively\, it is possible to do t
 he hands-on labs on your own laptop or on any system you have access to th
 at provides a C/C++ or Fortran compiler\, or Python+numpy+mpi4py\, and a r
 ecent MPI library.\nAccepted participants will be contacted a few days bef
 ore the course and asked to do a short pre-assignment that has to be compl
 eted before the course starts.\nLecturers\nClaudia Blaas-Schenner (lecture
 r\, ASC Research Center\, TU Wien)​Dr. Claudia Blaas-Schenner is passion
 ate about supercomputing / High-Performance computing (HPC) and has been a
 t the forefront of the field for over 30 years. She founded and directs th
 e training program at Austrian Scientific Computing (ASC)\, the Austrian n
 ational supercomputing center\, and is recognized for her expertise in par
 allel computing and the Message-Passing Interface (MPI)\, serving as a cha
 pter chair for Terms and Convention in the MPI Forum\, which standardizes 
 MPI. Her academic background is in Computational Materials Science and she
  holds a PhD in Technical Physics from TU Wien. Claudia is deeply engaged 
 in various large-scale European projects that advance HPC and AI\, with a 
 particular focus on addressing current needs in training and education.\nV
