High-Performance Computing Training by Skills for Advanced Computing Ecosystems

Abstract

High-Performance Computing (HPC) is one of the pillars of developing modern science and disruptive technologies, uniting computer architectures and parallel programming into multidisciplinary interactions to face domain-specific problems. That is why different areas of knowledge require their future professionals (scientists or not) to acquire skills in using HPC. The Super Computing and Distributed Systems Camping School, SC-Camp, is a non-profit activity that proposes a series of courses about HPC with an important focus on practical sessions (more than half of the time) addressed to undergraduate and graduate students who could benefit from HPC by demand. It is an itinerant school, bringing the HPC knowledge to a different place every year, focusing on diversity, sustainability, and humanity.
