Dear Students,

The assignment 5 is now released. The deadline is December 05, 2024.

You will be working with the GPU this time, which will be an exciting experience. We hope you enjoy this assignment and learn a lot from it.

Hello, class,

As we discussed, your oral presentations will be partially evaluated by your peers. Here are the details and expectations:

Starting from November 28, attendance at all presentations over the final four weeks is mandatory. Each week, you’ll evaluate each presenting team by completing a review form.

During the presentations, you’re encouraged to ask questions via Slido (https://app.sli.do/event/s9DvD255EBMZpphd1ogyJ1) using the same passcode you use to access lecture slides. Please remember to use your student ID as your full name for identification.

IMPORTANT GUIDELINES:

1. Attendance: Roll calls will be taken at the beginning of the class through the Zuvio app. Ensure you have the Zuvio app installed on a GPS-enabled device (such as a cell phone) and bring it to class. Log in using xxx@nycu.edu.tw (where “xxx” is your student ID) and the default password “123”.

2. Review Form: The review form will be distributed only at the start of class, so please be punctual and arrive by 9:10.

3. Team Evaluations: You are required to evaluate all teams, including your own.
   • Missing an evaluation for any team will result in a 1-point deduction from your project grade.
4. Slido Questions: Aim to ask at least one question on Slido over the four weeks.
   • Failure to ask at least one question will result in a 5-point deduction from your project grade.
   • Questions should focus on topics related to parallelism.
   • Use your student ID as your full name on Slido for attendance tracking.
   • Each team will field a maximum of four questions.

Thank you for your cooperation!

Dear Students,

Assignment 4 has just been released, and it’s time to explore the world of MPI! Please note that the deadline is November 21, 2024.

Also, as today marks the start of winter, remember to stay warm and cozy! ☃️❄️

Good luck, and happy coding!

Due to the incoming typhoon, tomorrow’s classroom lecture is canceled. Instead, an asynchronous learning session is provided. Please visit the E3 forum to find the link for accessing the lecture on MPI online.

Stay safe and take this opportunity to review the material at your own pace.

Dear students,

We’re happy to announce that the assignment 3 is now released. The deadline is November 07, 2024.

Wishing you all a spooky and fun-filled Halloween! 🎃👻

Dear students,

The assignment 2 is now released. Since we released it one day later than planned, we have extended the deadline by one day. The new deadline is October 18, 2024.

Due to the approaching typhoon, and following the government’s announcement, tomorrow’s lecture is cancelled for the safety of all students and staff. Please stay safe and take necessary precautions during this time.

Hello students,

Assignment 1 has now been released. Since we’re using a new dedicated server this year, please take note of the following:

• Login Method: Use ssh <student_id>@hpc1.cs.nycu.edu.tw -p <10001-10005>, you can choose any port from 10001 to 10005. To avoid too many users on a single login node, you can check the server loading in the login node using the command hpcmon-show. The server IP is: 140.113.215.198.

• Once logged in, the default shell is bash. To ensure the environment management tool Spack functions correctly, please do not use other shells.

Please note a slight adjustment to our class schedule:

• The class will begin at 9:10 AM.
• We will have two breaks:
  • 10:00-10:10 AM
  • 11:00-11:10 AM

This adjustment ensures that each session starts at 10 minutes past the hour. The class still ends at 12:00 PM.

Thank you for your attention, and I look forward to seeing you on September 5th!
