Subject: NEP-PACK: A Julia package for nonlinear eigenvalue problems

We are proud to announce version 1.0 of NEP-PACK - a Julia package for
nonlinear eigenvalue problems with eigenvalue nonlinearity. The
package is released with an open-source license. The development is
carried out openly, using modern software engineering techniques such
as unit testing and continuous integration. The package makes full use
of the efficiency of Julia, yet maintains usability, and integrates
well with other software packages and other programming languages
(including matlab and python). The package is designed to be easy to
use for application researchers and engineers as well as algorithm
developers.

Currently, the package contains implementations of many
state-of-the-art algorithms including projection methods (nonlinear
Arnoldi, two variants of Jacobi-Davidson methods), contour integral
methods (Beyn's method and block SS), Krylov methods (nleigs, infinite
Arnoldi variants, CORK-pencil data type, infinite Lanczos), Rayleigh
functional methods (residual inverse iteration, Rayleigh functional
iteration), Newton-type methods (augmented Newton, implicit
determinant, Newton-QR, quasi-Newton, Broydens method).

Examples of other features: Nonlinear Rayleigh-Ritz projection can be
combined with any NEP-solver of the package; Parallelization of
contour integral methods without modification of internals of the
package; Algorithm independent deflation; Chebyshev interpolation and
Chebyshev companion form; Direct access to Berlin-Manchester benchmark
collection

Subject: Node-Level Performance Engineering, Germany, Jan 2020

Node-Level Performance Engineering Course
University of Cologne, Germany, January 20-22, 2020

This course covers performance engineering approaches on the compute
node level. Even application developers who are fluent in OpenMP and
MPI often lack a good grasp of how much performance could at best be
achieved by their code. This is because parallelism takes us only half
the way to good performance. Even worse, slow serial code tends to
scale very well, hiding the fact that resources are wasted.  This
course conveys the required knowledge to develop a thorough
understanding of the interactions between software and hardware. This
process must start at the core, socket, and node level, where the code
gets executed that does the actual computational work. We introduce
the basic architectural features and bottlenecks of modern processors
and compute nodes. Pipelining, SIMD, superscalarity, caches, memory
interfaces, ccNUMA, etc., are covered. A cornerstone of node-level
performance analysis is the Roofline model, which is introduced in due
detail and applied to various examples from computational science. We
also show how simple software tools can be used to acquire knowledge
about the system, run code in a reproducible way, and validate
hypotheses about resource consumption. Finally, once the architectural
requirements of a code are understood and correlated with performance
measurements, the potential benefit of code changes can often be
predicted, replacing hope-for-the-best optimizations by a scientific
process.

Course Instructors: Prof. Dr. Gerhard Wellein, Dr. Georg Hager

Registration starts November 1, 2019 and ends December 15, 2019.
Participation is free of charge, but the number of participants is
limited.
