CS 4130 - High Performance Computing & Parallel Programming

Credit Hour(s): 3
Students will learn how to design code that can be run in parallel on many systems. It will cover two computer standards: Message Passing Interface (MPI) used for multiple cores partitioned across many nodes, and Open-MP - a multi threaded technology that runs applications across shared memory systems. The class will exclusively use Linux based systems, leverage the bash shell, introduce students to queuing systems, and compile code to be optimized for Massively parallel systems.
