OpenACC is the accepted standard using compiler directives to allow quick development of GPU-capable codes using standard languages and compilers. It has been used with great success to accelerate real applications within very short development periods.

This workshop assumes knowledge of either C or Fortran programming. It will have a hands-on component using the Bridges computing platform at the Pittsburgh Supercomputing Center.

UA researchers needing high-performance computing have resources available at no charge in the Research Data Center. Get priority access without dealing with the power, cooling, monitoring, or maintenance overhead by doing a "buy-in" on Research Data Center systems.
