Description
This workshop goes to more advanced topics and techniques in high-performance computing. Parallel algorithms, more advanced topics in message-passing interface (MPI), parallel tools and numerical libraries, parallel I/O, as well as shared-memory parallelization techniques along (with OpenMP) and combined with MPI are discussed and exemplified.
