[gmx-developers] Webinar: "More bang for your buck: Improved use of GPU Nodes for GROMACS 2018" with Carsten Kutzner

[Rossen Apostolov]

Dear all,

BioExcel (www.bioexcel.eu), the European Centre of Excellence for 
Computational Biomolecular Research, will host a webinar on improving 
the use of GPUs with GROMACS2018. It will take place next Thursday, 
Sept. 5th from 15:00 CEST.

The webinar is a continuation of Carsten's popular work on hardware 
benchmarking and gives new insights for cost-effective computing. From 
the abstract:

"With GROMACS 2018, the optimal CPU to GPU processing power balance has 
shifted even more towards the GPU. Hence, nodes optimized for GROMACS 
2018 and later versions enable a significantly higher performance to 
price ratio than nodes optimized for older GROMACS versions. Moreover, 
the shift towards GPU processing allows to cheaply upgrade old nodes 
with recent GPUs, yielding essentially the same performance as 
comparable brand-new hardware."

A highly recommended talk.
