The main goal of the course is to understand basic ideas related to computational tools on contemporary and inevitably parallel computer architectures. The focus is to discuss what should a computational mathematician consider to get basic computational schemes efficient in parallel computational environment. The goal is also to learn basic practical experience with parallel matrix computations on unix-like systems using Python.

Needed to get credits:
• students will independently prepare a parallel program based on theoretical examples discussed during lectures. The lectures can be also in the online distant form.

Examination according to the syllabus.
• students will be asked one thematically general question • students will have enough time to prepare their answer • examinor can pose subquestion related to the main question • all of this can be replaced by an online distant examination |

As a preliminary we assume to have basic knowledge of linear algebra as, for example, from the course NMAG101. Some graph theory knowledge is an advantage but not necessity. |
