ECP OpenMP Hackathons
 July 22-26 | Oak Ridge, TN, USA
Aug 27-30 | NERSC, Berkeley, CA, USA
ECP SOLLVE, in conjunction with ORNL and NERSC, are organizing two OpenMP Hackathons in July and August. We encourage participation of teams interested in using OpenMP to port and optimize their applications on GPUs, and use OpenMP for energy-efficient processor architectures.
- July 22-26, Oak Ridge Nat'l Lab (Oakridge, TN): Use OpenMP to port and optimize applications on GPUs. We will target porting codes to Summit. No longer accepting new proposals.

- Aug 27-30, Nat'l Energy Research Scientific Computing Center (Berkeley, CA): Use OpenMP to port and optimize applications for energy-efficient processor architectures. We are especially interested in application teams that are part of ECP or who want to improve the use of OpenMP tasks in their code We are now accepting submissions for the event: Proposal deadline is June 28, 2019

Preparing OpenMP Applications for Exascale Computing
Several OpenMP programs running on Summit were developed during a recent ECP SOLLVE hackathon at BNL. The teams worked on porting their scientific applications from CPUs to GPUs and optimizing them using OpenMP. The teams' applications included nuclear and high-energy physics, lasers and optics, materials science, autonomous systems, and fluid mechanics. Read more about it in this article.

What's New With OpenMP Tools?
- TACC interactive parallelization tool: The Interactive Parallelization Tool (IPT) assists domain experts and students in efficiently parallelizing existing C/C++ applications using MPI, OpenMP, CUDA, and hybrid programming. More info. Get account to use IPT.
- LLNL releases new version of MFEM based on OpenMP kernels: LLNL’s open-source C++ library for solving partial differential equations using the finite element method MFEM v4.0 was released with many new features including: initial GPU support based on CUDA, OCCA, RAJA and OpenMP kernels; partial assembly in the core library; support for mixed meshes and prisms; low-order to high-order transfer; 7 new examples + miniapps. More info.
