This school will present new developments and provide guidelines for the usage of the ABINIT software package on large-scale high-performance computing facilities.

Various topics will be covered including:

HPC related developments and guidelines

  • Introduction to high-performance supercomputer architectures
  • Compiling and tuning ABINIT on modern large-scale supercomputers
  • Running ABINIT on accelerated architectures (MPI - OpenMP - GPU)
  • Iterative algorithms for efficient diagonalization

Potential exascale applications

  • GW calculations for accurate band structure
  • Dynamical Mean Field Theory (DMFT) for strongly correlated materials
  • Coupled Cluster calculation of total energy from the Coupled Cluster for Solids (CC4S) software coupled to ABINIT
  • Workflows with ABINIT for high-throughput calculations

An important part of the school will be dedicated to hands-on sessions on one of the largest supercomputers in Europe.
