Dear Aurora users,
the NEC team has designed a training course on vectorization on the SX-Aurora Tsubasa.
This self study course is aimed at beginners with programming on the Aurora as well as advanced users.
We supply you with a set of slides providing details on vectorization techniques of varying difficulty
accompanied by 18 hands-on exercises in Fortran and C for you to try the techniques on real life examples.
In addition to the exercises we provide the solutions in a separate archive.
We encourage you to try the exercises without knowledge of our
solutions, as this will give you the best learning progress.
Updates for the exercises/solutions due to bug fixes or advances in the compiler development will be published here.
If you find bugs in the training exercises or mistakes in the training slides, or you find a solution to the exercises,
which performs better than our provided solution please let us know here so we can improve our training course.
Also suggestions for future improvements are welcome.
The NEC team wishes you an informative and fun time with the exercises
