Exercises

Team action

We would like participants to work in pairs on the exercises, and will try our best to match stronger programmers with less strong ones.

Getting to the exercises

First, log into todi.cscs.ch by using your CSCS account (provided at start of exercise). You can use

ssh –X username@ela.cscs.ch

and then

ssh –Y username@todi.cscs.ch

The option -Y works as –X, and enables X-windows protocol. Now clone the GPU_Libraries_2013 repository from GitHub.com, which gets you all the course material at once. In your home directory on Todi:

module load git

git clone https://github.com/fomics/GPU_Libraries_2013.git

Now proceed to the Exercises directory

cd GPU_Libraries_2013/Exercises

which contains in turn a number of directories for the tutorial exercises. The following exercises refer to one of these directories.
