In parallel computing several processors cooperate to solve a problem, which reduces computing time because several operations can be carried out simultaneously. From the computation point of view, this provides sufficient justification to investigate the concept of parallel processing. In this course, we are intended to investigate four steps that are involved in performing a computational problem in parallel. The first step is to investigate the nature of parallel computing with respect to architectures. The second step involves designing parallel algorithms or parallelizing the existing sequential algorithms. The third step is to map the problem into a suitable parallel computer, and the last step involves writing a parallel program utilizing an applicable parallel programming approach. An important reason to utilize high performance computing can be illustrated by the applications. The applications are representative of a host of situations in which the probability of success in performing a computational task is increased through the use of parallel processing.
