Parallel Systems (WS 08/09)

Latest News

Final results for assignments available.

The announcement is here .

Lecture slides are here.

Obligatory default rules for all assignments are here (in german).
Students may work and submit assignments in groups of up to 3.
Assignments must be delivered in directoty /tmp/parsys/youraccountname on wr0.wr.inf.h-brs.de as described in the above docuiment.
Practical exercises must be done - unless otherwise stated - on the following systems:
- sequential: wr0.wr.inf.h-brs.de
- OpenMP: wr0.wr.inf.h-brs.de
- MPI: WR-cluster with wr0.wr.inf.h-brs.de as login node. MPI-Jobs are submitted through the Batch-System (see here for documentation).
All Documentation for the WR-cluster can be found under "Further Information"
Results are available here (25.01.2009).
