Advanced training GPU-computing in OpenCL
Amsterdam, 9 Mar 2015
StreamHPC offers an OpenCL training in Mathematics or Media-operations. Target is OpenCL 1.2 (or 1.1 when NVIDIA is discussed). All trainings will be given by experienced OpenCL developers/trainers.
2-day advanced training
The first day will be advanced design and programming of OpenCL software, using various examples. The second day on optimisation of existing code. Both days are intensive – be sure to have followed the beginner’s course or have a good understanding of the basics already.
All is based on a book, and enriched with nowhere-to-be-found information, explanations about parallel algorithm design and the examples+experience of the instructor(s). About 50% of the training is lectures and 50% practicals.
The course is including a charged travel-card for public transport (worth around €25), lunch, coffee/tea, cookies and fruit like apples and bananas (so you can tell at home you got a healthy training).
Hardware Architectures
General optimisations will be discussed, focusing on NVIDIA (limited to OpenCL 1.1), AMD, Intel, ARM MALI, Imagination PowerVR, Qualcomm Adreno, Freescale/Vivante. Specific hardware-targets are on request.
Locations
Default location is Amsterdam. It has a regular and cheap flight-connection to all mayor cities in Europe, good public transport and relatively good hotels and hostels.
