Course Description

This track is introduces to advanced MPI process topologies and derived data types for distributed memory parallel programming, using MPI.
This track does assumes existing knowledge in parallel programming using MPI, including peer-to-peer and collective communications.

The teaching material, which will be available in C will cover the basic of MPI for CPUs. 

The PDF slides with the content are:  MPI-lectures.pdf, hands-on.pdf

PowerPoint slides (*.pptx) and exercise codes are available on Github at https://github.com/ackirby88/IHPCSS2024-mpi.
