TACC Training Basics – A collection of brief step-by-step videos on a variety of training topics.

Upcoming Training

Advanced Nvidia HPC SDK Training

NVIDIA will present a two day training session software for High Performance computing developers to build and optimize applications that run on NVIDIA GPU-accelerated systems. We'll cover NVIDIA's HPC SDK, including compilers (C, C++, Fortran), libraries (math, communication), and tools, as well as cover best practices to enable scientists to effectively use NVIDIA software for high performance computing. In addition to the HPC SDK, we'll do a deeper dive on C++ Standard Parallelism, profilers and correctness tools like NSight Systems, NSight Compute, and Compute Sanitizer, as well as a tutorial on NVIDIA's newest GPU Programming model, CuTile.

TACC Training Highlights — Watch Now!

Introduction to PETSc with Victor Eijkhout

PETSc provides a framework for the development of computational science codes. Its focus is on solving linear and nonlinear systems, but it is more than a collection of algorithms: it is a complete toolkit supporting parallel data structures, linear algebra, PDEs, meshes.

TACC Institute Series

The TACC Institute series is designed to help researchers further their science through applied computational techniques. Our goal is to broaden the number of people who use advanced computing; whether it’s for research, industry, or as a facilitator, there is an institute designed with you in mind.

Institutes are held on site at the Texas Advanced Computing Center and are in-person only. Meals provided. Detailed agendas will be posted when registration opens.

Information-Integrated Decision Support

Attend In-Person

Master systematic approaches for building end-to-end decision support systems that integrate multiple information sources — scientific research, sensor data, physics-based models, and stakeholder knowledge — to tackle wicked problems with no clear solutions. Led by TACC's Decision Support Office team of interdisciplinary researchers specializing in stakeholder-engaged computational modeling and intelligent decision support systems, this hands-on institute teaches the complete pipeline from problem framing through solution deployment.

Curating Large Scale Research Data: Concepts and Action

Attend In-Person

Master the art of curating complex data—from geospatial and imaging to simulations and AI outputs. Through hands-on activities, tours of HPC storage systems, and real-world case studies, you’ll learn data modeling, quality control, semantic search, AI-ready metadata, and impact measurement to make datasets discoverable, reusable, and future-proof.

HPC Leadership

Attend In-Person

The High Performance Computing (HPC) Leadership Institute is specifically tailored to managers and decision makers who are using, or considering using, HPC within their organizations. It is also applicable to those with a real opportunity to make this career step in the near future. Topics covered will include procurement considerations, pricing and capital expenditures, operating expenditures, and cost/benefit analysis of adding HPC to a company's or institution's R&D portfolio. A broad scope of HPC is covered from department scale clusters to the largest supercomputers, modeling and simulation to non-traditional use cases, and more. We encourage attendees from all backgrounds, including non-technical, to attend.
