| This introduces the course which covers the essential programming and algorithmic skills needed for large scale (serious) computing (aka simulation) |
We start with an overview of course itself and describe how it compares to other computational science offerings
|
| In Introductory material, we describe some large simulations of interest (the so called Grand Challenges) |
| An Overview of Technology trends driving the computer industry (in web and simulation areas!) |
| Overview of computational science education program here and elsewhere |
| Parallel Computing in Society and why it works in computers! |
