Abstract

Advanced interdisciplinary introduction to modern scientific computing on parallel supercomputers. Numerical topics include dense and sparse linear algebra, N-body problems, and Fourier transforms. Geometrical topics include partitioning and mesh generation. Other topics include architectures and software systems with hands-on emphasis on understanding the realities and myths of what is possible on the world's fastest machines.
