high performance computing on graphics processing units: hgpu.org

The goal of the course is to study parallel algorithms and their implementation on distributed and shared memory computers, using message passing, OpenMP, and threads. In the second half of the course we will consider general purpose graphics processing units. Prerequisites are a working knowledge of C (or willingness to acquire programming skills) and a familiary with algorithms at the level of introductory numerical analysis. The evaluation of the course consists mainly of homework and computer projects.
