Introduction to Parallel Programming Models

Innovations in computer system architecture, like hyperthreading or multicore processors, make parallel computing resources to solve different type of scientific problems. However, the use of these discoveries requires parallel programming techniques. Many standard
software products are based on concepts of parallel programming and use the hardware devices of future multicore processors efficiently. Thus, the need for parallel programming will extend to all areas of scientific applications. The application area will be much larger than the area of scientific computing, which used to be the main area of parallel computing for many years. The development of the application area for parallel computing will lead to a tremendous demand for software developers with parallel programming abilities. Some chip manufacturers already need to add parallel programming as a standard course in computer science curricula.

The course "Parallel Programming Models" discusses the computer architecture and state of the art programming approaches.
