MATH 447 - Introduction to Parallel Computing

(3.00)

This course introduces students to scientific computing on modern parallel computers. Examples of numerical algorithms will be taken from several areas of mathematics, including numerical analysis and numerical linear algebra. Students will discuss the implications of the parallel architecture on the design of numerical algorithms. Parallel computing equipment will be made available to students enrolled in the course. The course includes a significant portion of instruction dedicated to learning the parallel programming language on that machine. The class also includes a review of serial programming that is integrated into the presentation of sample codes.
