The training shows you how to develop platform independent and portable multithreading/ multicore applications without having to deal with explicit thread programming.

You learn how existing application code that has been developed for sequential execution is parallelized without having to change its general software architecture.

You are able to design applications such that you benefit from increased performance due to additional cores, without having to adjust the application to this end.

Software developers, software architects or project managers who want to develop platform independent multithreading/multicore-applications without the need to deal with explicit thread programming.

A working knowledge of C (or C++) and a basic knowledge of multithreading systems. (Important note: This course does not support the Fortran API of OpenMP!)

Introduction: General Multicore Programming Considerations

  • Reduction
  • Scheduling strategies
  • static
  • dynamic
  • guided
  • runtime
  • Conditional parallelization
  • single
  • nowait
