(part of the 2024 Compute Ontario Summer School) Virtual | COSS2024 |
| 17 Jun 9:00 am 12:00 pmThis is an introductory course covering programming and computing on GPUs - graphics processing units - which are an increasingly common presence in massively parallel computing architectures. The basics of GPU programming will be covered, and students will work through a number of hands on examples. The structuring of data and computations that makes full use of the GPU will be discussed in detail. Students should be able to leave the course with the knowledge necessary to begin developing their own GPU applications. Level: Introductory Length: Six 3-Hour Sessions (3 Days) Format: Lecture + Hands-on Prerequisites: Alliance Account Basic C and/or C++ experience (part of the 2024 Compute Ontario Summer School) Virtual | COSS2024 |

| 18 Jun 9:00 am 12:00 pmModern C++ is an efficient, versatile programming language. This workshop will focus on the following in both sequential and parallel contexts: using pseudo-random number generators, making use of reduction options using underlying sequential code, making simple use of in-situ code benchmarking/profiling, and, using mdspan for accessing multi-dimensional arrays and multi-dimensional array slices (submdspan). By the end of these sessions, one will have learnt about sequential and parallel uses of: C++ pseudo-random number generators and their use, C++ std::reduce(), std::transform_reduce(), etc. and C++ parallel algorithms and some of their uses and caveats, using std::chrono facilities, e.g., for in-situ benchmarks, and, how to use multi-dimensional arrays and slices in C++ code. Level: Intermediate Length: Four 3-Hour Sessions (2 Days) Format: Lecture + Hands-on Prerequisites: Experience developing sequential code in C++. (The C++ programming language is not the C programming language. Experience is expected programming in C++, e.g., using the standard library's containers, iterators, and algorithms.)

| 20 Jun 9:00 am 12:00 pmIn our digitally-driven world, databases are the cornerstone of virtually every online service and application. They help store your favourite songs on music platforms, track orders on shopping sites, and keep your personal information safe and sound. These incredible systems are the backbone of our digital universe, silently and efficiently managing the vast oceans of data that flow through our daily lives. From the social media sites we share with our friends to the online transactions that make our lives easier, databases are the unsung heroes, diligently organizing, storing, and retrieving information with remarkable precision. Whether you're a technical professional or just beginning to explore data management, the journey into the realm of databases is both enlightening and rewarding, offering endless opportunities for discovery and innovation. Together, we will explore the secrets that make our connected world tick.
