Parallel Computing Overview

This tutorial will help users learn the basics of parallel computation methods, including strategies for collecting calculations together for parallel execution. A brief description of parallel programming using MPI message passing will be given. A brief description of parallel programming using OpenMP will also be given. The hybrid MPI/OpenMP model will be briefly described. This will be a fast crash course on the most basic parallel computation and programming methods. Examples of how to compile and execute simple parallel programs will be given. 

NOTE: For the Fall 2020 session of this tutorial, the session will NOT be delievered live.  Registrations on this page will instead be for a live Q&A will be based on a previous recording.  Information about the Q&A session will be emailed to registrants about a week for the session date.
