Lectures for Advanced Computational Science II
I gave a series of 4 talks with two lab sessions as part of
the Advanced Computational Science II class given to graduate
students in the Department of Computational Science at
Florida State University.
The lectures on OpenMP were given on 9 and 11 September,
with a lab on 15 September. The lectures on MPI were given on
16 and 18 September, with a lab on 22 September.
PDF versions of the lectures are available by going to
../../presentations/presentations.html.
