Computational Science: Parallel Programming in Scientific Computing

Utbildningsfakta

Kod: BERN09

<p>The course covers key concepts in parallel programming and issues affecting correctness and performance. Upon completion, students will have advanced knowledge to develop, modify, and evaluate parallel algorithms and programs.</p><p>The course is an alternative-compulsory course within the Master’s Programme in Computational Science and may be included as an optional advanced-level course in the Master’s Programme in Mathematics with a specialization in Numerical Analysis. It can also be taken as a standalone course.</p> <p>The course introduces programming in C and addresses parallel computing with both distributed and shared memory. It covers essential commands in the MPI and OpenMP interfaces, methods for performance evaluation, debugging, and profiling of parallel applications. Furthermore, it discusses efficient parallelization of common algorithmic constructs as well as hybrid parallelization of stencil codes on regular grids.</p>
