CPS-615 page -- Fall 1996

Technology Modules (Programming Languages and Tools)

The World Wide Web consortium (W3C) homepage.
The W3 consortium provides general information and history about the World Wide Web.
Also W3C provides all the information needed about the HyperText Markup Language (HTML).
This is a link form CPS615 fall-95 on getting started on the World Wide Web.
A highly recommended starting point to HTML is the primer from NCSA entitled A Beginner's Guide to HTML.
Also, NCSA provides a simple and easy to follow primer on URLs entitled A Beginner's Guide to URLs.
NCSA HTTPd overview contains instructions on how to setup the server, tutorials and HTTPd Library.
From CPS615 fall-95, a link to a tutorial page entitled Tutorial on Creating Hypertext Documents. It also contains links to the abovementioned NCSA documents.
The Common Gateway Interface, or CGI, is a standard for external gateway programs to interface with information servers such as HTTP servers.
Here is that good old fashion NCSA Mosaic homepage.

Educational Materials for High Performance Fortran (HPF) and F90 is a collection of materials on learning HPF, programming background, applications, etc. on using HPF.
Lecture slides:An Introduction to High Performance Fortran .
EPCC: HPF Course Notes. This is a set of student notes for a course on HPF by Ewing, Richardson, and Simpson at the Edinburgh Parallel Computing Center. It contains 11 sections and one section of exercises.
HPF/F90 course slides. This set of slides were put together for a course entitled Writing Data Parallel Programs with High Performance Fortran at EPCC.
The Fortran Library (aka FLIB) is repository of fortran code mainly in Fortran90 and 77 to run various scientific and engineering tasks.
Tutorial for Compiling and Running XL Fortran Programs (for the SP2). This tutorial is for the IBM XL Fortran (or xlf) on the Cornell Theory Center's SP.

Lecture slides from fall 1995.
MPI resources page taken from CPS615 fall-96.
MPI Quick Tutorials from Ohio Supercomputer Center. This is a set of easy and quick tutorials on MPI mainly for beginners.
more MPI resources from HPCC at Southampton containing pointers to other resources and archives with yet more resources on the subject.
MPI: The Complete Reference by Dongarra et al. is a complete MPI book online covering all aspects of MPI.
A list of MPI implementations for various systems from Ohio Supercomputer Center. This is quite a valuable list of both commercial as well as publicly available MPI implementations. Each entry gives the name of the package, author or owner, current version, MPI functions implemented, availability of the code, and supported systems.
MPI Tutorials is a list of tutorials as well as other documents on learning MPI such as FAQs, lessons learned, MPI-inspired definitions, and quick overviews from Argonne National Laboratory.
Directory of MPI resources at the Engineering Research Center of Mississippi State.
A list of Tutorials and Lab Exercises are available at the MPI's page of Cornell Theory Center.

A set of parallel algorithms and animation are available at Parallel Algorithm Animation.
An archive of geometric algorithms in Java is available at JAVA Gallery of Geometric Algorithms.
The most widely studied and analyzed algorithms in the field of Computer Science are the sorting algorithms. Here are few of them implemented in Java.
Jon Hardwick of CMU has an excellent page for Java Optimization Resources. It lists resources for optimization as well as benchmarking and pointers to yet more resources.
MPI Java Wrapper is a set of Java Wrappers to MPI implemented sing Java 1.0 native class interface.
Using Java and JavaScript in the Virtual Programming Laboratory (VPL). VPL is a Web-based virtual programming environment built based on a client-server architecture. The system can be accessed on any platform (Unix, PC, or Mac) using a standard Java-enabled browser.
