Adaptyst performance analysis and full-stack system design workshop

Europe/Zurich
31/3-004 - IT Amphitheatre (CERN)

Description
The workshop has already taken place, but you can still:
- browse the Adaptyst introductory and demo/discussion slides and watch the corresponding recordings without any registration (see "Workshop recordings on CERNBox" in the timetable for the public videos)
- browse all slides and watch all recordings with the free postponed registration option
If you want to stay up to date with Adaptyst and its events, consider joining our Mattermost team and signing up to the adaptyst-tool mailing list on GMS/e-groups.
Adaptyst is an open-source R&D project developed at CERN about scalable, architecture-agnostic, and comprehensive performance analysis with optional flexible full-stack (software + hardware) system design and elements of compilation for various workflows across the entire computing spectrum, from embedded to distributed/high-performance computing.
Performance is broadly understood here: it can be latency, throughput, energy efficiency etc. with any contextual information, e.g. budgetary constraints.
In the current stage, the tool concentrates on profiling. However, the ultimate goal of the project is suggesting the most optimal compute solution automatically to an end user given their workflow, constraints, and requirements while taking into account all sides of computation: software, hardware, and systems.
Therefore, in the later stages of R&D, we are aiming for Adaptyst to do automatically various activities related to designing software and hardware systems, e.g. analyse performance of a workflow on a given setup, pick the most optimal software and hardware parameters where possible, choose compute units amongst CPUs, GPUs, FPGAs, and custom accelerators, design a memory hierarchy, or plan out storage and networking.
The planned modular design of the tool on both the software and hardware sides (with the first version on the hardware side becoming available soon) allows Adaptyst to use existing work such as profilers easily and adapt to all types of workflows and computing systems regardless of the pace of market development.
This workshop is dedicated to Adaptyst and is a unique chance for you to shape the project:
- You will be introduced to the tool.
- You will hear several talks about Adaptyst-related work and current/potential applications of the tool.
- You will be able to discuss your use case(s) and share your opinions, helping guide R&D directions of the project.
- You will participate in the Adaptyst live demo session.
Sounds interesting? Register now for free! Tea and coffee will be provided.
NEW: If attending all day is not feasible for you, the partial/postponed participation option is now available for the morning introductory session at 9:30-10:20 CERN time, the afternoon demo + discussion session at 15:30-17:00 CERN time, and/or the recordings (along with an optional one-to-one meeting to discuss your use case for Adaptyst on a date most convenient for you)! Live webcast is also available for everybody with a CERN account without having to register (no possibility of asking questions and contributing to discussions).
The workshop is open to people from all CERN departments and experiments (regardless of the computing / electronics for data processing or controls work they do) + external people by invitation, with a remote Zoom option for everybody either not based at CERN at the time of the event or taking part in the event only partially.
If you have any questions, please message adaptyst-contact [at] cern.ch (the previous e-mail had a dot instead of a dash and was thus incorrect: apologies!) or ask us in our Mattermost team.
