The class MATH 627 Introduction to Parallel Computing

introduces the current HPCF cluster taki and

teaches parallel computing using it.

Starting with an efficient introduction to the Linux operating system

and the basics of the C programming language,

it introduces MPI, which is the most prevalent library for

communications on distributed-memory clusters.

This course has the goal to help you use the cluster most effectively

by understanding how the hardware and software really work

as well as to contribute to community-building by meeting other HPCF users.

The class is taught by Matthias Gobbert from Mathematics and Statistics,

the faculty lead on the HPCF initiative and liason of

the HPCF Governance Committee to the system administrators in DoIT.
