Course Content
|
The main objective of the course is to build a strong understanding of the fundamentals of the architecture of parallel computers and the tradeoffs made in their design. These parallelisms, such as, multi-core architectures, parallel memory systems, vector architectures, dataflow machines, and interconnection networks will be explained in the class.
