EPEEC Project Fosters Heterogeneous HPC Programming in Europe

The European Programming Environment for Programming Productivity of Heterogeneous Supercomputers (EPEEC) is a project that aims to combine European made tools for programming models and performance tools that could help to relieve the burden of targeting highly-heterogeneous supercomputers. It is hoped that this project will make researchers jobs easier as they can more effectively use large scale HPC systems.

Appentra Solutions will be part of SC16 Emerging Technologies Showcase

Today Appentra Solutions announced that the company will participate in the Emerging Technologies Showcase at SC16. As an HPC startup, Appentra was selected for its Parallware technology, an LLVM-based software technology that assists in the parallelization of scientific codes with OpenMP and OpenACC. “The new Parallware Trainer is a great tool for providing support to parallel programmers on their daily work,” said Xavier Martorell, Parallel Programming Models Group Manager at Barcelona Supercomputing Center.

Oak Ridge to Run ParallWare on Titan

Today Oak Ridge announced approval of a project run ParallelWare from Appentra on the Titan Supercomputer. The project includes an allocation of 50,000 core hours on supercomputer. “ParallelWare is an source-to-source parallelizing compiler for sequential scientific programs. ParallelWare automatically discovers the parallelism available int he input sequential C code, and automatically generates parallel-equivalent C code annotated with OpenMP compiler directives.
