This course covers the basics of high performance computing (HPC). This includes an introduction to processor and HPC system architectures, optimization and performance modeling, and parallel programming on shared- and distributed-memory parallel computers. Necessary prerequisites are a working knowledge about UNIX/Linux environments and at least one programming language out of the set {C, C++, Fortran}. We do not have the time to teach UNIX or programming basics in this course.

Lecturer: Prof. Gerhard Wellein, Martensstr. 3, Room 1.131-113
