CM5 GENERAL INFORMATION

Location:

Purpose: This workshop will provide an introduction to parallel methods for scientific computing. It is the first workshop of the new collaborative effort between the DHPC Division of ACSys and the CSSM.

Program Outline: There will be three talks in the morning presented by members of the DHPC Project and the The South Australian Centre for Parallel Computing (SACPC). The afternoon presentations will discuss the physics to be addressed using these parallel computing techniques.
