Course Title:
Research in High Performance Computing
Course Description:
Introduces students to research in the domain of high performance computing. Each instance of this course covers a single topic with broad open questions. The required systems background needed to investigate these questions is covered in the first part of the course. Then, working in teams, students have an opportunity to address different aspects of the open questions so that in combination the entire class may learn more than any single team could accomplish. Example topics include use of new hardware such as GPUs on video boards; use of new software tools for multicore computing; development of check-pointing packages for more robust long computations; software for GUI window systems; and cloud computing.
