Tutorial Statement

Abstract

This tutorial will provide an overview of the Global Arrays (GA) programming toolkit and describe its capabilities, performance, and the use of GA in high performance computing applications. The tutorial will review basic concepts in onesided communication and Global Address Space languages and will discuss basic setup and elementary communication using GA. More advanced topics, including global counters, non-blocking communication, and sparse data structures will also be discussed. If time permits, the tutorial will also present new/advanced capabilities and ongoing research activities.
