Allinea DDT/OPT Training Course This article is outdated - use this information at your own risk! Posted on 14 May 2008

ICHEC have arranged for Gordon Cook from the Allinea technical team to give two identical 2-day courses on his company's flagship products: Distributed Debugging Tool (DDT) and Optimization and Profiling Tool (OPT). The courses are provided free of charge to ICHEC users (current members of Class A/B projects only).

For those who may not be familiar with DDT/OPT, they are tools installed on some of our HPC systems and are aimed at developers of large-scale scalar and parallel applications. Please refer to www.allinea.com for more details.

If you are an ICHEC user of a Class A/B project and would like to attend one of these courses, please contact Simon Wong (e-mail simon.wong@ichec.ie) to register for this event. As the number of spaces is limited, we can only accommodate a maximum of two people per project and allocations will be done on a first-come, first-served basis. For those based outside Co. Dublin, ICHEC may be able to provide suitable reimbursements for travel & accommodation costs (again please contact Simon for details).
