Parallel Rekenen

Principle and basic techniques of parallel computing. Concepts of the interplay between parallel algorithmic and architecture and programming of parallel computers. Parallel algorithms and parallel programming models (such as shared-variable, message-passing, etc.) are discussed. Basic concepts of problem decomposition, scheduling and mapping for parallel computation in large scale computational scienceenengineering problems are considered. The lab exercise comprises the solution of a problem on a parallel computer.

1. Written exam (50%)

2. Lab work (50%)

3. Quizzes: bonus of max 1 point can be obtained (only valid on the first examination occasion after the lectures)

Final grade calculation: (0.5*Exam + 0.5*Lab + bonus)

Repair possibilities:

Written exam: resit in next quarter

Lab assignment: re-submit the lab report, the repair grade will be capped at 6.0
