It is consistently=0Aone of the top languages in HPC with a growing vibrant community of=0Aopen source tools. Proven to scale on the world's largest clusters, it=0Ais a language that has continued to innovate with a wealth of new data=0Atools.=0A=0AThis tutorial will survey the state of the art tools and techniques=0Aused by HPC Python experts throughout the world. The first half of the=0Aday will include an introduction to the standard toolset used in HPC=0APython and techniques for speeding Python and using legacy codes=0Aby wrapping Fortan and C. The second half of the day will include=0Adiscussion on using Python in a distributed workflow via MPI and tools=0Afor handling large scale visualizations.=0A=0AStudents should be familiar with basic Python syntax, we recommend the=0APython 2.7 tutorial on python.org. We will include hands-on=0Ademonstrations of building simulations, wrapping low-level code,=0Aexecuting on a cluster via MPI, and use of visualization tools. Examples=0Afor a range of experience levels will be provided. SUMMARY:Python in HPC PRIORITY:3 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
