- Low-level (assembler) serial code optimization
In addition to these, four scientific case studies concerning using the top-end HPC systems to solve the most challenging problems will be presented by European top researchers
The exercises will be carried out on a brand new Cray XE6 system in PDC, Sweden as well as on CSC's Cray XT4/XT5 system Louhi.
