IXPUG Workshop HPC Asia 2018 is an open workshop on high performance computing application, system and architectural technology on Intel Xeon Phi many-core processor and coprocessor. IXPUG (Intel Xeon Phi Users Group) is a user community to share knowledge and experience on Intel Xeon Phi related computing.
IXPUG Workshop HPC Asia 2018 is the first IXPUG Workshop in Asian region, as a part of International Conference HPC Asia 2018 held in Tokyo, Japan. This is a half day workshop with contributed papers and key note talks. Any research aspect related to Intel Xeon Phi is welcome to present to share this advanced technology for high performance computing.
About one year has passed after the first Intel Xeon Phi standalone processor (Knights Landing architecture), and three supercomputers equipped with this processor ranked in TOP10 supercomputers in the world to provide several tens PFLOPS performance. The technology to apply this processor to practical applications are now on the stage of productive execution from past practical ones. In this IXPUG Workshop HPC Asia 2018, users of Intel Xeon Phi processors share the knowledge on how to use, optimize and perform the high end computation for the state of the art research.
