Welcome to Hands-On with Summit!

What is Summit?

Summit, located at Oak Ridge National Laboratory in Oak Ridge, TN, is one of the world's most powerful supercomputers dedicated to open scientific research. It has lots of unique architectural features that we'll explore today, including:

  • IBM POWER9™ CPUs (x 9,216)
  • NVIDIA Volta V100 GPUs (x 27,648)
  • Single-Node performance of 42TF (x 4,608)
  • Node-local Memory / "Burst Buffer" of 1.6TB/Node
  • Total System Memory >10PB DDR4 + HBM + NVME

Navigating this Session

Here you will find the session agenda along with various resources to help get you up and running on Summit. We'll take a deep look at the system's design, discuss how research teams write programs for and run workloads on Summit, and you'll get to run on your own. The session is guided by hands-on challenges.

The first challenge is to successfully log into Ascent and clone this repository.

Each challenge has its own sub-directory under /challenges/, and includes a README.md file and any additional files for that challenge. Challenges range in difficulty from introductory to very complex, and may require research and reference materials outside of what's provided in this repository.
