This course will use a blend of foundational understanding as well as a set of practical tools to gain insight into performance engineering of software. The course introduces techniques to gain performance boost in Java programs and C++ (or C) programs by discussing the use of multiple processors.
Prerequisite: A grade of "B-" or better in COMP 413.
Outcomes: Students will learn shared memory, message passing and hybrid models of programming in both tightly-coupled and loosely-coupled computer systems.
