*Please bring your own laptop to the CDT 102 training, below is a list of the necessary specifications:

• Windows (XP or newer), Mac OS X (10.5 or later), or Linux (something from the 21st century)
• Wired (Ethernet) and wireless (Wi-Fi 802.11g or later) network connectivity
• Web Browser (any)
• On Windows: Putty and Pageant (www.putty.org) and WinSCP (www.winscp.net)
• On Mac OS X and Linux: ssh client
• Optional: on all operating systems, the free software NoMachine (www.nomachine.com). This is only necessary if you are not comfortable programming in Linux in a text terminal over an SSH connection. System requirements and installation instructions for NoMachine can be found here. 

Space is limited ... register early!

This one-day training 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 session will cover:

• 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

Register Now! Reminder: You must complete CDT 101 before taking CDT 102
