    Workshop

    Container technologies are rapidly becoming the preferred way to distribute, deploy, and run services by developers and system administrators. They provide the means to start a light-weight virtualization environment, i.e., a container, based on Linux kernel namespaces and control groups (cgroups). Such virtualization environment is cheap to create, manage, and destroy, requires a negligible...

    Workshop

    Introduction

    In this workshop, we will introduce the basics of programming in Go and then work our way up to concurrency programming with this relatively new language.

    We'll start with the usual "Hello World" program, introduce functions, variables, packages and then interfaces.
    Then, we will tackle the two main tools at the disposal of the Go programmer (colloquially known as a gopher):...

    Workshop

    The course targets beginning Python developers and people familiar with scripting. The basics required to complete the course are covered, but ideally you already feel comfortable writing small scripts in any language. We highly recommend to use your own laptop (Linux, MacOS, Cygwin) for the exercises.

    Workshop

    Besides offering fresh ideas and new programming concepts, Julia was mainly created to solve the two language problem.
    The two language problem describes the common pattern of prototyping algorithms in an easy to use high level language and then reimplementing it in a fast language like C - doubling development costs and making updates and further development more complicated.
    This also has...

    Workshop

    This workshop is an introduction to profiling a system or individual programs. We will concentrate on profiling to understand aspects of program performance. All discussion and examples are presented with Linux in mind, and some Intel specific information will be given.

    Topics include:

    Overview of

    • CPU microarchitecture (Intel mainly)
    • OS: processes and threads
    • Parallel programming...

    Workshop

    Writing maintainable software is a prerequisite in many fields. Especially when working in projects with many members it is essential to

    • write readable software and documentation,
    • enable versioning of software,
    • ensure correctness of software,
    • enable automated tests of software, and
    • enable agile workflows based on issue tracking.

    However, the goals of maintainable software are not...

    Workshop

    Machine learning, and especially deep learning, is one of the current hot topics in computer science and engineering. It has not only experienced tremendous advancements in its theoretical foundations during the last few years, but is now also the state-of-the-art method in a broad range of applications. In this course, you will learn the

    Workshop

    A single plain C file is sufficient to express an embedded program.

    As the Arm Cortex-M architecture is designed with C-Code in mind, no assembly level system bring up code is required. This workshop will teach you how to program C code on top of a bare metal CPU without an operating system or support libraries like libc.

    It will give you insight on how linkers can be configured to run...

    Workshop

    In this workshop, the students will (a) learn how to efficiently use
    relational and non-relational databases for modern large-scale
    scientific experiments, and (b) how to create database workflows suitable for analytics and machine learning.

    First, the focus of the workshop is to teach efficient, safe, and
    fault-tolerant principles when dealing with high-volume and
    high-throughput database...

    Workshop

    OpenMP (Open Multi-Processing) is a programming interface for shared memory parallelization on multiprocessor computers.
    The Message Passing Interface (MPI) is a comunication standard describing the exchange of messages for distributed memory parallelization on parallel computers.
    Both programming concepts will be introduced with simple examples.
    In this course, you will learn to write simple...

    Workshop

    In this tutorial we first present our new distributed Big Data processing framework called Thrill [1,2]. It is a C++ framework consisting of a set of basic scalable algorithmic primitives like mapping, reducing, sorting, merging, joining, and additional MPI-like collectives. This set of primitives goes beyond traditional Map/Reduce and can be combined into larger more complex algorithms, such...
