Annotation -
The course covers the basics of parallel programming and distributed processing of computationally intensive tasks and procedures. The aim of the course is to analyze the process communication and time complexity of process subtasks with respect to design the procedures with optimized parallel performance. Implementation of the studied methods is predominantly in the JAVA programming language.

Aim of the course -

Students will be able to:

  • Distinguish whether it is easy to make given task or procedure parallel.

  • Design effective parallel procedures.

  • Propose other possible acceleration of calculations for tasks with hard parallelization.
