Principle of Scalable Performance Presentation Report (PPT)

Description

NTRODUCTION

• A branch of computer science that concentrates on developing supercomputers and software to run on supercomputers. A main area of this discipline is developing parallel processing algorithms and software programs that can be divided into little pieces so that each piece can be executed simultaneously by separate processors. (http://www.webopedia.com/TERM/H/High_Performance_Computing.html)
• Will not talk about embarrassingly parallel applications
• The idea/premise of scientific parallel processing is not new (http://www.sandia.gov/ASC/news/stories.html#nineteen-twenty-two)
