ABSTRACTCNS-07222212PI: Vijay PaiInstitution: Purdue UniversityTitle: CPATH EAE: Extending a Bottom-Up Model to Support Concurrency from the First Year This CPATH project builds a community involved in integrating concurrency and parallelism topics throughout the undergraduate computing curriculum starting in the first year. This is achieved by emphasizing the spatial concurrency inherent in hardware and having students consider designs with parallelism. After the introductory courses, follow-on courses will be adapted to include fundamental concepts of parallelism wherever applicable. It includes the development of educational tools to assist students in designing parallel programs and the dissemination of materials to broader communities. A group of possible adoptors including major research institutions in the mid-west participates in workshops and other community activities during the three years of funding.The intellectual merit of the project lies in the importance and currency of the topic and clear need for such changes in computing education to prepare the upcoming generation of computing professionals. The project team includes researchers with significant expertise in both the computing discipline research that underlies the implementation and in educational innovation. The project has the potential for national impact and to provide new models for computing education of the future.The broader impacts of the project lie in the potential to address changing demands on computing professionals and to attract a diverse audience of students. The chief impacts lie in the sound evaluation that should demonstrate the effectiveness of the model and support the dissemination on a national level. The project has the potential to provide a research-based national resource that revitalizes the preparation of undergraduates for software development professional careers.

摘要CNS-07222212 PI：Vijay Pai机构：Purdue University职称： CPATH EAE：从第一年开始扩展自下而上的模型以支持并发性这个CPATH项目建立了一个社区，该社区参与了从第一年开始的整个本科计算课程中的并发性和并行性主题的集成。这是通过强调硬件中固有的空间并发性和让学生考虑并行设计来实现的。在介绍性课程之后，后续课程将进行调整，以包括适用的并行性的基本概念。它包括开发教育工具，以帮助学生设计并行方案，并向更广泛的社区传播材料。一组可能的采用者，包括主要的研究机构在中西部地区参加研讨会和其他社群活动在三年的funding.The智力价值的项目在于重要性和货币的主题和明确需要这种变化在计算教育准备下一代的计算专业人员。 项目团队包括在实施基础的计算学科研究和教育创新方面具有重要专业知识的研究人员。该项目有可能对全国产生影响，并为未来的计算机教育提供新的模式，其更广泛的影响在于有可能满足对计算机专业人员不断变化的需求，并吸引各种各样的学生。主要影响在于进行合理的评价，以证明该模式的有效性，并支持在国家一级的传播。该项目有可能提供一个以研究为基础的国家资源，振兴本科生的软件开发职业生涯的准备。
