About

About the course

Course content

The subject is taught every other year, next time in the spring semester 2011. The goal
is to study grid technologies and use of heterogeneous
systems for intense computational tasks. Focus will
be on numerical problems, including combining numerical
simulations with graphics processing of large volumes
of data and/or appications with real-time requirements.
The content of the course will be adapted to the students
interests and background.

Learning outcome

To master newer technologies within grid and hetorgenous
computing systems, including techniques for optimizing
algorithms for multicore technologies.

Learning methods and activities

Graduate seminar serie where graduate students
activly participate, as well as 2 prosjects that
include implemetations and analysis of related topics.
