Intel is offering an updated and expanded series of software developer trainings in parallel programming using the Intel® Xeon PhiTM coprocessor.
This series of offerings provides software developers the foundation needed for modernizing their codes to extract more of the parallel compute performance potential found in both Intel® Xeon® processors and Intel Xeon Phi coprocessors.
The courses contain materials and practical exercises appropriate for developers beginning their journey to parallel programming, as well as provide cutting-edge detail to HPC experts on the best practices for Intel's multicore and many-core architectures and software development tools. The offerings include a one-day introductory lecture (free), a one-day hands-on laboratory (free), and a four-day immersive workshop.
The training targets software engineers and architects, and covers the following topics:
- Intel Xeon Phi architecture: purpose, organization, pre-requisites for good performance, future technology
- Programming models: native, offload, heterogeneous clustering
- Parallel frameworks: automatic vectorization, OpenMP, MPI
- Optimization methods: general, scalar math, vectorization, multithreading, memory access, communication and special topics

Courses: Programming & Optimization with Intel Xeon Phi Coprocessors
Colfax Developer Training (CDT) is an in-depth intensive course on efficient parallel programming of Intel Xeon Phi coprocessors and Intel Xeon processors.
|
One-day Seminar |
The 1-day seminar (CDT 101) features presentations on the available programming models and best optimization practices for the Intel Xeon Phi coprocessor, and on the usage of the Intel software development and diagnostic tools. CDT 101 is a pre-requisite for hands-on labs, CDT 102. |
|
One-day Laboratory |
The 1-day labs course (CDT 102) features hands-on exercises on the available programming models and best optimization practices for the Intel Xeon Phi coprocessor and Intel Xeon processor, and on the usage of the Intel software development and diagnostic tools. The pre-requisite for this class is the one-day seminar CDT 101. NOTE: This class will be capped at 16 students; other students will be waitlisted. If a slot opens up, you will be notified. |
