Section Description
Topic: Parallel programming with migratable objects.
This course will teach and explore a method for parallel programming that can be used to program multicore desktop (with and without accelerators), small clusters, as well as petascale/exascale computers, with the same programming model. The model is based on the idea of over-decomposing the computation into a large number of interacting objects, mostly independent of the number of processors, and to empower an intelligent runtime system decide where and when the objects execute.
Pre-requisite: No specific course requirements. Good sequential programming experience in C++ and/or Java.
