On clusters and distributed memory architectures, parallel programming with the Message Passing Interface (MPI) is the dominating programming model. This 4 half-days course teaches parallel programming with MPI starting from a beginners level. Hands-on sessions (in C and Fortran) will allow users to immediately test and understand the basic constructs of the Message Passing Interface (MPI).
This course is organized by the Vienna Scientific Cluster (VSC), TU Wien in cooperation with HLRS. It is based on the HLRS MPI course.

Please note, below you find the agenda for the originally planned 3 days face-to-face course. For the 4 half-days online version of the course the agenda will be adjusted to allow for more time and flexibility with doing the hands-on labs remotely. The updated agenda will be available shortly before the course starts.
Here is the preliminary course outline (for the originally planned 3 days face-to-face course).
For the hands-on sessions you should know how to work on the Unix/Linux command line and be able to program in either C/C++ or Fortran.
Learn more about course curricula and content levels.
For doing the hands-on labs all you need is a C/C++ or Fortran compiler and a recent MPI library. Participants can choose between using their own laptops or any system they have access to that provides these, it's even possible to do the exercises in Google Colab. Alternatively, participants can ask for a training user account at the VSC for the duration of the course.
