Argonne Training Program on Extreme-scale Computing Seeks Applications
for 2021
February 8, 2021
Feb. 8, 2021 — The architecture and software environments of today’s most
powerful supercomputers are complex, posing significant challenges to
researchers interested in using them to advance scientific discoveries. To
meet these challenges and facilitate breakthrough science and engineering on
these amazing resources, the annual Argonne Training Program on Extreme-Scale
Computing (ATPESC) — hosted by the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Argonne
National Laboratory — provides specialized, in-depth training to doctoral
students, postdocs and computational scientists.
Applications are now being accepted forATPESC 2021 — an intensive two-week
training program that teaches participants the key skills, approaches and
tools they will need to design, implement and execute computational science
and engineering (CSE) applications on current leadership-class supercomputers
and next-generation exascale machines. Launched in 2013, ATPESC has hosted
more than 500 participants since its inception.

at ATPESC, an annual training program that provides specialized, in-depth
training to doctoral students, postdocs and computational scientists on
today’s most powerful supercomputers. (Image taken in 2019 by Argonne National
Laboratory.)
The program, which will be held this year from Aug. 1–13, is designed to
address gaps in the training that computational scientists typically receive
through formal education or other shorter courses.
“Many researchers start out with fairly ad hoc exposure to solving problems
computationally. The ATPESC curriculum covers a broad set of topics, filling
in gaps and providing a solid basis to support their future work,” said Ray
Loy, ATPESC program director and lead for training, debugging and math
libraries at the Argonne Leadership Computing Facility (ALCF), a DOE Office of
Science User Facility.
Added ATPESC lecturer William Gropp, director and chief scientist at the
University of Illinois at Urbana Champaign’s National Center for
Supercomputing Applications, “ATPESC provides an intense, broad and deep
introduction to many aspects of high-performance computing (HPC), not just one
or two. Having direct access to some of the leaders in the field is great for
asking questions, getting opinions and talking about careers. The participants
also benefit from being part of the ATPESC community with their fellow students.”
More than 70 participants will benefit from lectures and hands-on training
sessions provided by renowned computer scientists and HPC experts from U.S.
national laboratories, universities and industry. The core curriculum will
address:
·Computer architectures and predicted evolution.
·Numerical algorithms and mathematical software.
·Approaches to building community codes for HPC systems.
·Data analysis, visualization, I/O, and methodologies and tools for big data
applications.
·Performance measurement and debugging tools.
·Machine learning and data science.
Previous attendees have benefited immensely from the program. Aleksandra
Pachalieva, a graduate research assistant at Los Alamos National Laboratory
who attended ATPESC in 2020, remarked “Aside from technical aspects of
exascale computing, I learned a lot about software productivity, quality and
sustainability. The systems and tools that we are using are changing
constantly but having good software practices is a key concept that will
ensure the success of the software we develop as scientists.”
Another 2020 participant, Kevin Green, a research scientist for the department
of computer science at the University of Saskatchewan in Canada, said “I’ll
be using a lot of the ideas I’ve seen here to update material in our
high-performance computing courses. I’ve also gotten a good feel for how we
can migrate our current code designs to designs that will perform well across
different supercomputing architectures.”
