CPS615-End of Numerical Integration and Very End of HPF

Given by Geoffrey C. Fox at Delivered Lectures of CPS615 Basic Simulation Track for Computational Science on 24 October 96. Foils prepared 11 November 1996

This covers two topics:
Monte Carlo Integration for large scale Problems using Experimental and Theoretical high energy physics as an example
This includes accept-reject methods, uniform weighting and parallel algorithms
Then we complete HPF discussion with embarassingly parallel DO INDEPENDENT discussed in Monte Carlo case
And HPF2 Changes


This mixed presentation uses parts of the following base foilsets which can also be looked at on their own!
Master Set of Foils for 1996 Session of CPS615

Overview of Fortran 90 and HPF Fall 96
