NSC welcomes you to participate in a three-day in-depth training on the Intel Trace Analyzer and Collector (ITAC) tool. The training is hosted at NSC on March 20–22, 2012 and will be given by the Intel expert Heinrich Bockhorst. The training is directed towards application/system experts and HPC users with good understanding of MPI programming and will include a good deal of hands-on exercises.

The ITAC tool can be used to visualize and understand parallel application behavior, evaluate profiling statistics, analyze performance, and learn about communication patterns etc. For more information about ITAC, please see: http://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/intel-trace-analyzer.

The training starts at 9.00 on Tuesday, March 20 and ends on the afternoon of Thursday, March 22. The training class is free of charge and includes lunch and coffee. Hence, participants will only need to cover travel and accommodation costs.

We have approximately 20 seats available for first-come first-served registration, which will close as soon as the seats have been booked, but no later than March 6. To register your interest, please fill in the registration form. We will let you know within a few days of registration whether or not we were able to book a seat for you.

For details regarding the training schedule and contents, please see the schedule and contents page.

The hands-on exercises will use our Kappa cluster and NSC will set up accounts for all participants who don’t already have an account on this system. Note that we have no terminals available in the lecture room, so you will need to bring a laptop for remote connection to Kappa.

Venue: The training will be held at Linköping University, Campus Valla in house Galaxen, room G35. Please use entrance 81 where you will find signs guiding you to the correct room.

NOTE: Please visit this site again before making your travel arrangements, because we will soon add relevant information regarding transportation etc.

If you need more information, please send an email to iht@nsc.liu.se.
