Making Effective Use of Compilers at NERSC
Michael Stewart, NERSC User Services. This talk will describe and compare compilers available on Hopper. The strengths and weaknesses of each will be described and a set of "best practices" presented. There will also be a shorter description of the Carver compiling environment and a preview of the NERSC7 compiling environment. Read More »

Object-Oriented Programming in Fortran 2003
March 26-28, 2012 &
April 10-12, 2012
Fortran 2003 explicitly supports object-oriented programming (OOP). OOP aims to increase a program's maintainability in part by reducing cross-module data dependencies and to increase a program's reusability in part by providing for extensible derived types. Emerging compiler support for Fortran 2003 inspires a more modern program design and implementation style. This course provides the requisite skills. Read More »
Software Carpentry Bootcamp
March 28-29, 2012
NERSC will be hosting a free two-day Software Carpentry Boot Camp on March 28-29 to introduce scientists to skills and tools that will allow them to use computing more efficiently. The workshop will cover the core skills a researcher needs to know in order to be productive in a small team, and will be followed by four to eight weeks of self-spaced online learning. Read More »
