OpenMP.org has posted the slides and audio from a day-long tutorial on Hybrid MPI and OpenMP Parallel Programming from SC13. OpenMP is the de facto standard for writing parallel applications for ...

Douglas Eadlne over at Linux Magazine writes that benchmarking OpenMP vs. MPI is a recipe for surprise: In a previous column, I had an opportunity to test OpenMP and MPI on a brand new 8-core SMP ...

Just because supercomputers are engineered to be far more powerful over time does not necessarily mean programmer productivity will follow the same curve. Added performance means more complexity, ...

MPI (Message Passing Interface) is the de facto standard distributed communications framework for scientific and commercial parallel distributed computing. The Intel MPI implementation is a core ...

In recent years with the advent of programming techniques, parallel programming consumes less execution time as compared to sequential. The odd-even merge sort algorithm was developed by K.E. Batcher.
