Abstract

The Conan package manager for C++ is useful in both simple and advanced development environments. Join the Conan team to see it in action, with a simple demo using OSS libraries and tools from ConanCenter, and a more complete demo showing how to create and upload a package including different binaries for different platforms to a private repository. Also, learn about many other unique and innovative advanced Conan features along the way.

Speaker Bio

Diego Rodriguez-Losada‘s passions are robotics and SW engineering and development. He has developed many years in C and C++ in the Industrial, Robotics and AI fields. Diego was also a University (tenure track) professor and robotics researcher for 8 years, till 2012, when he quit academia to try to build a C/C++ dependency manager and co-founded a startup.. Since then he mostly develops in Python. Diego is a conan.io C/C++ package manager co-creator and maintainer, now working at JFrog as Conan Lead Architect and C/C++ Advocate.

What's new with Chapel?  Applications, Aggregators, and Accelerators

Please welcome Brad Chamberlain of Hewlett Packard Enterprise (formerly Cray Inc.) as our speaker this month! Since we will all be safe at home folks will need to provide their own pizza - sorry.

Conference ID: 981 759 587#

Abstract

Chapel is a language supporting productive parallel programming on large-scale supercomputers.  Chapel strives for a Python-like experience in terms of code clarity, yet with the type-safety and flexibility you'd expect from a language like C++ combined with the performance and scalability that the HPC community expects from standard approaches for scalable computing, like MPI.

In this talk, I'll start with a quick overview of Chapel for those who have either missed my prior NWCPP talks or need a refresher.  From there, I'll move on to recent highlights on the project, including: some significant and recent applications that have been written in Chapel; optimizations that aggregate communications to improve performance; and a nascent effort to target GPUs using native Chapel code.

Speaker Bio

Brad Chamberlain is a Distinguished Technologist at Hewlett Packard Enterprise (formerly Cray Inc.) who has spent his career focused on user productivity for HPC systems, particularly through the design and development of the Chapel parallel programming language (https://chapel-lang.org).  He received his Ph.D in Computer Science & Engineering from the University of Washington in 2001 and remains associated with the department as an affiliate professor of the Paul G. Allen School.
