Parallel Computing for Undergraduate Faculty

本项目介绍了本科计算机科学教师 并行计算。 当他们完成了这个项目 他们不仅准备培养本科生， 并行计算课程，同时也要评估 建立平行本科的可行性 在他们自己的学院和处理实验室 合并并行计算方面的可能性 到其他课程。 该项目开始于一个密集的两个- 1992年夏天的一周课程。 该课程包括 讲座调查广泛的并行计算和 并行设计和实现的指令 算法 这门课大约有一半的时间 动手编程 有一个平行的发展 每个参与者的工作站和四台并行计算机 （三个有十六个处理器，一个有八个处理器）， 运行和基准标记程序。 在秋天，The 20名参与者参与大型项目，并进行现场访问 和/或回访高露洁。 一月份 1993年有一个为期一周的研讨会，与会者出席 他们的项目，并讨论教学的实际方面 并行程序设计本科生。//

This project introduces undergraduate computer science faculty to parallel computing. When they have completed the project they will not only be prepared to develop an undergraduate course on parallel computing, but also to assess the feasibility of establishing an undergraduate parallel processing laboratory at their own college and the possibilities for incorporating aspects of parallel computing into other courses. The project begins with an intensive two- week course in the summer of 1992. The course includes lectures surveying the broad scope of parallel computing and instruction on the design and implementation of parallel algorithms. About half the time during this course is spent doing hands-on programming. There is a parallel development work station for every participant and four parallel computers (three with sixteen processors, one with eight processors) for running and bench marking the programs. During the Fall, the twenty participants work on larger projects, with site visits from the instructors and/or visits back to Colgate. In January 1993 there is a one-week seminar where participants present their projects and discuss the practical aspects of teaching parallel programming to undergraduates.//
