This course is designed for scientists, engineers, students, and professionals looking to develop efficient solutions for high-performance and distributed computing systems. It focuses on parallel ...

Today Univa announced the integration of UberCloud parallel application containers with Univa Grid Engine. In May of last year, Univa, a leading innovator of workload management products, announced ...

Victor Eijkhout: I see several problems with the state of parallel programming. For starters, we have too many different programming models, such as threading, message passing, and SIMD or SIMT ...

Just because supercomputers are engineered to be far more powerful over time does not necessarily mean programmer productivity will follow the same curve. Added performance means more complexity, ...

Most of the legacy code that needs porting to newer systems is serial code, meaning that the code runs on a single processor with only one instruction executing at a time. Modern OpenVPX boards ...

When I wrote about password guessing using GPUs last week, I mentioned that password guessing is an embarrassingly parallel problem, right up there with 3-D rendering, face recognition, Monte Carlo ...

Students will be able to analyze the computing and memory architecture of a super computing node and use OpenMP directives to improve vectorization of their programs. This module focuses on the key ...
