[LA-SiGMA] HPC Training: Overview of Numerical Libraries

[Alexander Pacheco]

Dear All,

The next HPC training will be held on Wednesday, Mar. 27 at 10:00 am in 
307 Frey and broadcast through Adobe Connect for remote users.

Wednesday, Mar 27, 2013: Overview of Numerical Libraries
This training will cover serial and parallel libraries for better 
performance. Topics will include include numerical, I/O and other useful 
libraries such as lapack(netlib, mkl), fftw, petsc, hdf5/netcdf. Some 
optimizations for mpi libraries and compilers will also be covered. This 
training requires a LONI or LSU HPC account or a system with these 
libraries already installed (our virtual image does not have these 
libraries installed).

Next HPC Training (Note change in schedule)
Wednesday, April 10, 2013: Introduction to GNU Octave
GNU Octave is a high-level interpreted language, primarily intended for 
numerical computations. It provides a convenient command-line interface 
(CLI) for solving linear and nonlinear problems numerically, and for 
performing other numerical experiments using a language that is mostly 
compatible with MATLAB. It may also be used as a batch-oriented 
language. As part of the GNU Project, it is free software under the 
terms of the GNU General  Public License (GPL).

Please feel free to distribute to members of your department or 
institution who may benefit from these training.

on the day of the scheduled training.
Users who plan on joining remotely will be provided with an Adobe 
Connect Link in their registration confirmation email. Please see the
