CS 5260 - Parallel Computations I

Architecture, synchronization and communication aspects of parallel and distributed systems. This course will focus on the design and analysis of algorithms which have a prototype treatment on current machines. These algorithms may include parallel sorting, combinatorial search, graph search and traversal, applications in graphics, 2-d finite differences, 2-d finite element techniques, matrix algorithms and the Fast Fourier Transform.
