Overview:

The Intel eXtreme Performance Users Group (IXPUG) is an active community-led forum for sharing industry best practices, techniques, tools, etc., for maximizing efficiency on Intel platforms and products. IXPUG Workshop at HPC Asia 2023 is an open workshop on high-performance computing applications, systems, and architecture with Intel technologies. This is a half-day workshop with invited talks and contributed papers. The workshop aims to bring together software developers and technology experts to share challenges, experiences, and best-practice methods for the optimization of HPC, Machine Learning, and Data Analytics workloads on Intel® Xeon® Scalable processors, Intel® Xeon Phi™ processors, Intel® FPGA, and any related hardware/software platforms. The workshop will cover application performance, and scalability challenges at all levels - from intra-node performance up to large-scale compute systems. Any research aspect related to Intel HPC products is welcome to be presented in this workshop.
