• [2010-02-18 13:11:34] Updated slides MPI/PETSc/OpenMP. There was an error in Exercise 3 (biharmonic equation). The last value in the 5 point stencil is for u{j-2} (NOT u_{j+1}). This was fixed in this new update.
• [2010-02-18 09:09:55] I updated the slides. Due to an error the assignement and the FAQ section were missing from the slides. They are included now, at the end of the slides, pags 375-390.
• [2010-02-17 17:28:39] WARNING: PLEASE, THE PARALLEL RUNS MUST BE EXECUTED EXCLUSIVELY ON THE PARALLEL2 QUEUE, AND THE CONFIGURATION OF MPI MUST BE OPENMPI-INTEL-1.2.4. (This instruction are also included in the slides, in the FAQ section).
• [2010-02-17 10:16:42] There was an error in the slides regarding PETSc. There is no more SLES class in PETSc. This is explained in the slides.
• [2010-02-16 10:35:53] The classes of Thursday 18 and Friday 19 will be given in classroom A1-201.
• [2010-02-16 10:35:44] The visit to the Mare Nostrum supercomputer is scheduled for Friday 19, 15:00hs. We gather at the hall of the C1 Building at 14:45.
