HPC and AI GPU profiling bootcamp 2026

IDRIS is organizing an online HPC and AI GPU profiling Bootcamp on February 10th, together with NVIDIA and the OpenACC organization.

This bootcamp provides an overview of profiling and code optimization on GPU through a mix of lectures and hands-on sessions which will in particular allow you to familiarize yourself with the NVIDIA profiling tools Nsight Systems and Nsight Compute. There will be two parallel hands-on sessions, one focusing on optimizing high performance computing codes and the other on optimizing artificial intelligence codes.

The hands-on sessions will take place on computing resources provided by NVIDIA. You can attend the bootcamp even if you do not have an IDRIS account.

The bootcamp will also be the occasion to discover the new NVIDIA Grace Blackwell NVL72 architecture which powers the prototype machine DALIA recently installed at IDRIS.

Attendees will have the opportunity to discuss their real-world projects and codes with NVIDIA experts at the end of the event.

Attending this bootcamp is highly recommended for those interested in the GPU hackathon which will be held at IDRIS in May.
