[intrepid-notify] ALCF Weekly Updates - April 5

[ALCF User Services]

*** Register Now for the Leap to Petascale Workshop May 22-25 ***
Mark your calendars and plan to attend Leap to Petascale: Making the Move to Mira. This workshop is geared especially for current INCITE and discretionary projects that have already scaled to multiple racks of Intrepid. With the arrival of Mira, the ALCF’s 10-petaflops Blue Gene/Q, this year’s workshop will focus on issues of scaling to the next-gen system. The workshop is also timed to coincide with efforts of teams preparing to submit 2013 INCITE proposals. A significant portion of workshop time will be devoted to hands-on tuning of applications with one-on-one assistance from our performance engineers and computational scientists. Special system reservations will provide the opportunity for full-scale runs. To register, visit https://www.alcf.anl.gov/workshops/l2p-workshop

*** gdb 7.2 Now Available ***
An updated version of gdb is now available, which can be used for login node program debugging as well as analyzing binary cores from the compute nodes. To access this version, add the softenv key "+gdb-7.2" in your ~/.softenvrc prior to @default.

*** "Preparing for INCITE" Webinar April 24. Register Now! *** 
The open call for 2013 INCITE awards is April 11-June 27, 2012. To be eligible for an INCITE award, your project must demonstrate a high-impact science goal, plus computational readiness and the need for leadership-class supercomputing resources. Visit https://www.alcf.anl.gov/incite2013 to find out more about the INCITE Program and to register for this informational webinar.

*** INCITE RFI Open *** 
Are you planning to submit an INCITE proposal for 2013? If so, the INCITE Program invites you to respond to a Request for Information to inform the INCITE management of the proposal topics they can anticipate in this year's open call for proposals. Visit https://hpc.science.doe.gov/allocations/incite/ to respond. Please note: The information requested here is not a prerequisite for proposal submittal, nor will it limit any requests you may decide to make in your INCITE proposal.

*** Reservation Policy Reminder ***
