OCI 0634064National Dissemination of HPC Introductory Education through MultimediaPI: Thomas SterlingLouisiana State UniversityAbstractThis proposal is designed to address the multi-disciplinary nature of High Performance Computing (HPC), its impact on various sciences, the graying of the HPC community with its inadequate number of young participants, educated in the relevant sub-disciplines, entering the field. As an interdisciplinary field, HPC engages talents in the broad areas of hardware architecture and design, system software, programming languages and tools, and parallel algorithms and computational techniques. While many universities offer graduate courses in one or more of these areas, there is a dearth of collegiate level courses presenting an essential balanced treatment across all constituent areas and their critical interrelationships as they contribute in synergy to delivered performance. Only through such an interdisciplinary presentation can students experience the interplay and mutual sensitivities of each conceptual component with the others determining the factors that influence the overall resulting computational capability. Louisiana State University (LSU) is undertaking to develop such a course at the first year graduate level and as a senior level elective. The goal of this new course, using multimedia: "High Performance Computing Concepts, Methods, and Means" is to engender a new generation of computer and computational scientists expert in the development, operation, and application of high performance computing systems prepared to address this nation's future challenges demanding capability and expertise in HPC.

OCI 0634064通过多媒体向全国传播高性能计算入门教育PI：Thomas Sterling路易斯安那州立大学摘要这项建议旨在解决高性能计算(HPC)的多学科性质，它对各种科学的影响，高性能计算社区的老龄化，以及接受过相关子学科教育的年轻参与者人数不足而进入该领域的问题。作为一个跨学科的领域，HPC吸引了硬件架构和设计、系统软件、编程语言和工具以及并行算法和计算技术等广泛领域的人才。虽然许多大学提供其中一个或多个领域的研究生课程，但缺乏在所有组成领域及其关键相互关系上提供必要平衡待遇的大学水平课程，因为这些课程有助于提高所提供的成绩。只有通过这种跨学科的陈述，学生才能体验到每个概念部分的相互作用和相互敏感性，其他部分决定了影响总体结果计算能力的因素。路易斯安那州立大学(路易斯安那州立大学)正在着手在研究生一年级开设这样一门课程，并将其作为高级选修课。这门使用多媒体的新课程：“高性能计算概念、方法和手段”的目标是培养新一代计算机和计算科学家，他们是高性能计算系统开发、操作和应用方面的专家，为应对这个国家未来对高性能计算能力和专业知识的挑战做好准备。
