CS 4523: Programming Massively Parallel Processors

3 Credit Hours

Prerequisite: CS 3305 and CS 3502
A study of practical parallel algorithms with an emphasis on implementation and performance issues on massively parallel processors. Design and implement high performance computing applications using CUDA running on Graphics Processing Unit (GPU). Topics include heterogeneous parallel programming, hardware threading models, synchronization, parallel blocking algorithms, register allocations, memory performance, and inter-thread communication.
