This lab course will allow you to learn about programming HPC systems. You first optimize a heat distribution simulation on SuperMUC-NG for sequential performance. You will then parallelize it with OpenMP for a single node of SuperMUC with 48 cores. Finally, you parallelize it with MPI for multiple nodes and investigate the final performance of combining OpenMP and MPI in a hybrid code.
