IDRIS, in conjunction with NVIDIA, is organizing an HPC and AI GPU Hackathon, mobilizing the resources of GENCI's Jean Zay supercomputer.
It will take place on May 9 and 17, 18 and 19, 2022, remotely, due to still uncertain health conditions.
The registration deadline is Thursday, March 31, 2022.
The GPU hackathon enables teams of three or four developers or researchers to improve the performance of their HPC or AI codes under the guidance of one or more mentors, experts in GPU programming and drawn from universities, national laboratories, computing centers, government institutions and manufacturers.
For HPC projects, this can range from starting to port code to the GPU using OpenACC, GPU libraries, CUDA, etc., to optimizing an existing GPU implementation. In the case of large-scale code, it is advisable to prepare a representative mini-application to be able to be more efficient during the event.
For AI projects, the hackathon will be an opportunity to work using the AI framework of your choice both on improving the model itself and its multi-GPU or even multi-node parallelization, or its passage into mixed precision.
