CSE164 - Solving Problems with High Performance Computers
Units: 4
Course Objectives: CSE 164 renumbered from CSE 164B, effective Fall 1999. Explore problem solving techniques for computationally intensive problems running on parallel computers. Student will study software techniques such as multithreading, message passing, and data parallelism, and apply them to applications that are representative of real world problems.
Course Description: Exploration of techniques for solving problems on high performance and parallel computers. Topics includealgorithms design, efficient implementation techniques (load balancing and communiction optimization), programming mode design. Building high performance applications.
Format: 3 hours of lecture per week, 1 hour discussion section per week, 4 hours of computer lab, and 4 hours of outside preparation.
Prerequisites: CSE 101 or Math 188, and CSE 120, or consent of the instructor.
Other restrictions: Majors only.
Laboratory work: Programming assignments on parallel computers.
Offered: One quarter per year, generally in the Fall.
