  2. About the course • Today the first part of a two-part course on Parallel Computing • “Parallel newcomers” as the supposed audience • Prerequisites: basic skills in (sequential) programming (C lang.) • Fact: No chance to learn parallel programming in one day • Goals: To provide some orientation in the field, to show directions for self-study • Material motivated from numerous textbooks and information sources • [Foster 1995] the most important one • Based on a parallel programming course given at VSB-TUO, but major update • Not certain if able to keep the schedule • Second part (September?) – more advanced topics (suggestions?), some practical training?

  3. Outline of the course part 1 • Lecture 1: Motivation & Contexts • Lecture 2: The Hardware Story • Lecture 3: Models of Parallel Computations • Lecture 4: Message Passing Interface I • Lecture 5: Parallel Application Design • Lecture 6: Performance Analysis
