Dear Ioannis, this is my experience with offloading using omp4... it is slightly out of date but i suspect syntax did not change. in the module that contains the data (i suspect in reality is a glorified common block) you need things like this ``` !$omp declare target(xxx,yyy,zzz,vxx,vyy,vzz,fxx,fyy,fzz) ``` then of course you will need to sync the data to device before the call of the routine ``` !$omp target map(to: imcon) & !$omp map(to: xxx,yyy,zzz) ``` Regards, Alin Without Questions there are no Answers! ______________________________________________________________________ Dr. Alin Marin ELENA http://alin.elena.space/ ______________________________________________________________________ On Sat, 5 Sep 2020 at 15:35, Ioannis E.
