[hpc-announce] Virtual workshop on teaching heterogeneous parallel computing

[David Bunde]

All,

The ToUCH project (http://touch.cs.txstate.edu/) will be hosting a
virtual workshop on teaching parallel computing on heterogeneous
systems, which are increasingly common across the spectrum from
smartphones to high-performance clusters.  We have developed modules
to easily add heterogeneous computing to courses such as CS 2,
Systems, Computer Organization, Algorithms, and Parallel Computing.

The workshop will consist of half-day group sessions on July 16 and
July 23, with individual or small-group meetings between these so that
you can prepare to use a module in your class.  Stipends will be
provided.
