Description

OpenMP is an easy alternative to pthreads for multithread computing. OpenMP extensions now exist in most C and Fortran compilers and allow flagging loops and other construct for efficient multithreading with little supplementary programming effort. 

Contents:

  • Parallel programming paradigms
  • OpenMP Execution model
  • Compiling an OpenMP program
  • Data races
  • Parallel loops
  • Barriers and synchronisation

Prerequisite:

  • Being able to use SSH with private keys 
  • Being familiar with a text editor 
  • Mastering the Linux command line and the GNU utilities (mkdir, cp, scp, etc.)
  • Passive knowledge of C or Fortran


Type: Hands-on
