We Introduce Computational Science and Driving Forces
|
We give a simple overview of parallel architectures today with distributed, shared or distributed shared memory |
We describe data, functional and pleasing parallelism |
We describe principles of parallel programming using atmospheric simulation as an example |
We describe the growing importance of Java |
We explain pragmatic choices
|
There is a conventional website http://www.npac.syr.edu/projects/jsufall98 |
This will hold links to all presentations given in the class and to other resources at both NPAC and elsewhere |
This can be used to review material before and after classes -- in the lingo, it is an asynchronous learning resource |
We teach the class from Syracuse twice a week for 70 minutes at 5.30pm Syracuse, 4.30 pm Jackson time. |
This teaching uses Tango to deliver electronic material remotely |
Tango supports inter alia chat rooms, whiteboards, and the sharing of web pages. These are web pages available at "conventional website" above. This is synchronous learning but it uses same material you would use offline. |
