  1. OPENACC MONTHLY HIGHLIGHTS May and June 2018

  2. WHAT IS OPENACC Open Specification Developed by OpenACC.org Consortium Designed for performance and portability on CPUs and GPUs Add Simple Compiler Directive Directives-based programming model for parallel computing main() { <serial code> #pragma acc kernels #pragma acc kernels { <parallel code> } } SIMPLE POWERFUL & PORTABLE 2

  3. OPENACC GROWING MOMENTUM Wide Adoption Across Key HPC Codes VASP Top Quantum Chemistry and Material Science Code OVER 100 APPS* USING OpenACC For VASP, OpenACC is the way forward for GPU acceleration. Performance is similar to CUDA, and OpenACC dramatically decreases GPU development and maintenance efforts. We’re excited to collaborate with NVIDIA and PGI as an early adopter of Unified Memory. ANSYS Fluent Gaussian GTC XGC ACME FLASH COSMO Numeca silica IFPEN, RMM-DIIS on P100 VASP LSDalton MPAS GAMERA Prof. Georg Kresse Computational Materials Physics University of Vienna * Applications in production and development 3

  4. OPENACC IN THE NEWS  Oak Ridge National Lab on industrial OpenACC codes: Boosting industry with OpenACC Read More  OpenACC Blog: Evaluating the Performance of OpenACC in GCC Read More 4

  5. RESOURCES Tutorial: Zero to GPU Hero with OpenACC by Jeff Larkin GPUs are often the fastest way to obtain your scientific results, but many students and domain scientists don't know how to get started. In this tutorial we will take an application from simple, serial loops to a fully GPU-enabled application. Students will learn a profile-guided approach to accelerating applications, including how to find hotspots, how to use OpenACC to accelerated important regions of code, and how to get the best performance they can on GPUs. No prior experience in GPU-programming or OpenACC is required, but experience with C, C++, or Fortran is a must. Several books will be given away to attendees who complete this tutorial. WATCH NOW 5
