Foil 2 Abstract of Dec 5 1996 CPS615 Lecture

From CPS615-Linear Programming and Whirlwind Full Matrix Discussion Delivered Lectures of CPS615 Basic Simulation Track for Computational Science -- 5 Decemr 96. by Geoffrey C. Fox *
Secs 66.2
This lecture covers two distinct areas.
Firstly a short discussion of LInear Programming -- what type of problems its used for, what the equations look like and basic issues in the difficult use of parallel processing
Then we give an abbreviated discussion of Full Matrix algorithms covering
  • The types of applications that use them
  • Matrix Multiplication including Cannon's algorithm in detail
  • Use of MPI primitives including communicator groups
  • Performance Analysis
