High Performance Computing for Science and Engineering
COMPSCI 2050
Subject & Catalog Number
Course Information
Description
As manufacturing processes approach the physical limits of transistor density, efficient code must exploit parallelism to scale with available computing resources. Scientific software developers must therefore adopt a “think parallel” mindset to solve complex problems across academia, industry, and society. This course introduces parallel programming and its relationship to computer architectures, with an emphasis on high performance computing. Students will develop experience with programming models such as OpenMP, MPI, and CUDA, applying these techniques in homework and a term project.
