OpenMP.org has posted the slides and audio from a day-long tutorial on Hybrid MPI and OpenMP Parallel Programming from SC13. OpenMP is the de facto standard for writing parallel applications for ...
Let's start by looking at message-passing parallel programming. The most common version in use today is MPI (Message Passing Interface). MPI is actually a specification, so many different ...
Message Passing Interface, or MPI, is often layered on top of or embedded within OpenMP or OpenACC tools commonly used in extreme scale HPC applications, for instance. Ditto for CUDA, the parallel ...
Of course, OpenMP is a natural for the development of vector parallel codes, but OpenMP continued to focus on loop level parallelism utilizing threads until the introduction of the SIMD construct in ...
Dr. Doug Eadline has written a great article for those new to the computational arts in comparing MPI and OpenMP. With the advent of multi core processors, one has a myriad of decisions to make on how ...
This course is structured to train students to reason about the design and implementation of efficient parallel programs. The focus areas of the class will be on the modeling, implementation and ...
CS 358 serves as an introduction to the field of parallel computing. Topics include common parallel architectures (shared memory, distributed memory, CPU vs. GPU, multicore vs. multiprocessor), ...
Version 6.0 of the OpenMP API is released, which opens up parallel programming to new applications, makes it easier to develop parallel programs, and gives more fine grain control to the developer.
