While the peak performance and energy efficiency of computing hardware are constantly growing, the development of fast scientific software is experiencing an important paradigm shift. Efficient algorithm implementations face rigid constraints about memory layouts, access patterns and FLOP/Byte ratios. Diego Rossinelli (ETH Zurich) discusses the design of wavelet-based adaptive solvers for compressible flow simulations that […]

In October hpc-ch organized together with the University of Basel a Forum on the Use of GPU and Accelerators for HPC. In a series of articles we publish the videos of the presentations. Martin Jacquot (Universitiy of Basel) was hosting the event and presented the implementation and usage of GPU at the University of Basel. […]
More than 30 members of the hpc-ch will participate to the next forum on «the Use of GPU and Accelerators for HPC» Thursday 27th October 2011 hosted by University of Basel. We are looking forward meeting you all in Basel. Agenda The hpc-ch meeting will already start on Wednesday, October 26th with a common dinner […]
Thursday 27 October 2011, 10:00 – 17:00, hosted by Universität Basel Setting the Scope In the last years the interest in using Graphics Processing Units (GPU) for HPC computing has been growing. Modern GPUs are designed to support computer games in the real time calculation of their visual effects. Therefore modern GPUs are highly parallel […]
