Master Set of Foils for 1997 Session of CPS615

Given by Geoffrey C. Fox at Basic Simulation Track for Computational Science CPS615 on Fall Semester 97. Foils prepared 25 August 1997

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
  • We point out new modules on web based computing
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!
