MCS Student Lecture Series
"Programming Models for High Performance Scientific Computing"

DATE: June 7, 2011 to June 7, 2011
TIME: 9:30 AM - 10:30 AM
SPEAKER: Jeff Hammond
LOCATION: TCS Conference Center Rms 1404 & 1405, Argonne National Laboratory

Description:
A programming model is the high-level structure within which an algorithm is implemented. The complexity of the programming model required for a given application depends greatly on the type of parallelism to be expressed. In the first part of this talk, I will highlight some of the most common programming models (e.g. master-worker) and describe their implementation within MPI. The second part will focus on asynchronous programming models using one-sided communication and the utility of this model within application codes in biology and chemistry.
