Abstract: This tutorial will walk the audience across the complexity of modern computing servers. We will detail why those characteristics are important to HPC application developers and why they are difficult to manage manually. We will then introduce the Hardware Locality software (hwloc) which is developed to make developers’ life easier by abstracting hardware topologies in a portable way.
