| Abstract | Proficiency in high-performance computing (HPC) is today an essential skill for students in any computer science program. While traditional curricula provide several courses related to parallel programming, we are increasingly including parallel computing topics in our mandatory undergraduate and graduate algorithms classes. We briefly review our recent activities in this direction and outline future plans. We discuss the courses being impacted, the choice of curricular material in our classes, and the evaluation of students on parallel programming problems. In particular, our efforts focus on the use of big data problems as motivational tools for initiating students in the area. Our aim is to teach students not only parallel programming techniques, but also encourage them to think of and formulate real-life tasks in terms of modules that can be solved by exploiting parallel algorithms and multicore computing architectures. |
