Parallel Programming with OpenMP

Catalog description

Advances in multicore processors have opened a new era for developers to replace their slow sequential applications with the faster parallel versions without any concern about hardware replacement expenses. Influenced by this new wave, this course provides an introduction to understanding and writing basic Parallel Programs using OpenMP which is one the most widely used application programming interfaces (APIs) for parallel programming. OpenMP expands the capabilities and features of most programming languages by parallelizing the sequential programs into faster parallel ones.
