HPC Monthly Workshop: MPI – August 12-13, 2025
The Rosen Center of Advanced Computing, in conjunction with The Pittsburgh Supercomputing Center, is pleased to present an MPI workshop.
This workshop is intended to give C and Fortran programmers a hands-on introduction to MPI programming. Both days are compact, to accommodate multiple time zones, but packed with useful information and lab exercises. Attendees will leave with a working knowledge of how to write scalable codes using MPI – the standard programming tool of scalable parallel computing.
This event will be presented using the Wide Area Classroom(WAC) training platform. This will be an IN PERSON event hosted by various satellite sites, there WILL NOT be a direct to desktop option for this event.
