Introduction To Parallel Computing

1. Introduction ToParallel Computing

2. The Team

3. About Me • Microsoft MVP • Intel Blogger • TechEd Israel, TechEd Europe • HPC • NT, CE, DDK, C#, Asp.Net, DirectShow, 8051, … • http://AsyncOp.com • http://Asaf.Shelly.co.il

4. Agenda • Introduction & Key Concepts • Intel Tools • Visual Studio 2010 • Parallel Programming: Models & Techniques • Windows Server • Windows Server 2008 R2 HPC • Michael Sullivan: Platform Strategy Manager Microsoft MEA

5. Parallel Computing • Multi-Core • Distributed Systems • SOA & WebServices • Transaction, Session, Queue, Event, Interrupt • User Experience over User Interface • Maximize performance: No Free Work Unit • Best performance: No I/O Wait

6. What is Multi-Core Pentium Pentium Pentium Pentium

7. Why Multi-Core Performance Power 100% 2 GHz

8. Why Multi-Core 174% Performance Power 113% 100% 100% 2.4 GHz 2 GHz

9. Why Multi-Core 174% Performance Power 113% 100% 100% 87% 50% 2.4 GHz 2 GHz 1.6 GHz

10. Why Multi-Core 174% 174% Performance Power 174% 113% 100% 100% 100% 2.4 GHz 2 GHz 1.6 GHz

11. Advantages of Multi-Core • Low Power Consumption • Extended battery life • Less heating • Smaller and lighter devices • Software replaces custom hardware!

12. Challenges With Multi-Core • Design Patterns • STL • Our existing code • Tools • Online Samples • My Work Routine

13. Making Coffee • Hot Water • Small Glass • Coffee • Milk • Sugar • Cookies

14. Object Oriented Design: Inheritance Liquid Dissolvent

15. Object Oriented Design: Methods • Make Hot • Is Hot? • Pour to glass • Is spilled?

16. Object Oriented: Steering -> Pour -> Drop -> MIX??? -> Mix with Sugar -> Mix with Water

17. Actions • Mix is an Action • “What Does” instead of “What is” • Relevant Methods Added • System Design!

18. Making Coffee in the real world • Boil the water • Until water is hot: • Go to the kitchen and get the coffee, milk, sugar • If water still not hot read a book • Mix the sugar, coffee and hot water • Add the milk • Go get 5 cookies of the 42 you made yesterday

19. Making Coffee: The Flow Chart FINISH START IDLE

20. Making Coffee: Conjunction Points FINISH START IDLE

21. Task Oriented Design • Is The Missing Link • Flow Charts before Object Diagrams • Locating Flow Control Bugs (Random Bugs) • Maximizing CPU Power • Keep Responsive for good UX

22. User Interface Demo

23. User Interface Demo Bad

24. User Interface Demo

25. Renaissance • Fork • Pipe • Services • Kernel • Hardware • Multiple Devices on board

26. Wave of the future • New Tools • New Design Patterns • New API Sets • New and Evolving ways to do things • Object Oriented Aware • New Communities • New R&D Culture
