Services

For requests and questions with regard to the HPC Performance Lab contact hpc-perflab@fau.de.

Other support channels:

  • Once per month the RRZE organizes the HPC-Cafe where you can meet us in person.
  • For issues concerning RRZE HPC systems contact hpc-support@fau.de
  • For KONWIHR questions and project applications contact info@konwihr.de

We provide the following services:

  • General HPC user support, e.g., single core optimization, MPI and hybrid parallelization, compiler issues, or I/O improvements
  • Node-level performance engineering (PE) for CPUs and GPUs, including performance analysis, analytic performance modeling, and optimization actions (e.g., appropriate blocking techniques, parallelization strategy, or efficient data layouts)
  • Microbenchmarking and architectural analysis. The RRZE HPC Testcluster provides access to a wide range of CPUs and GPUs.
  • Algorithmic expertise is provided for numerical methods for simulations and software-libraries in the field of iterative and especially sparse solvers like multigrid methods and lattice Boltzmann solvers.
  • Trainings and Tutorials about programming for HPC systems and Node-level Performance Engineering
