NSTU Chair of Parallel Computing Technologies. |
 |
Technical University of Novosibirsk has established the Chair on Parallel
Computing Technologies, staff members of the Chair are recruited among
the staff members of SSD (part time positions only). This is a special
form of education organization in Russia intended, on one side, to involve
active researchers of RAS in teaching of modern disciplines, and to provide
for students the access to the modern equipment and technologies concentrated
in research institutes of RAS, on the other side.
Chair is concentrated to teach in parallel computer science including
theoretical foundations, parallel languages, systems and computing technologies,
methods and tools for parallel solution of big size problems.
All the students are involved in SSD research projects, they have an access
to the SSD equipment, software, technologies, library, to any scientific
materials. As the members of the SSD research teams the students should
accomplish a small investigation (research subproject of one of the SSD
projects).
Every year the Chair offers up to 5-7 M.Sc. and the same number of Ph.D.
programs.
NSU Chair of Parallel Computing. |
|
NSU chair of Parallel Computaions was founded on 3rd April, 2002. Main subjects of research are:
- parallel computations models
- high-performance computer architecture
- system and application software
Staff members of the Chair are recruited among the staff members of SSD (part time positions). Working actively in parallel computations research area and having teaching expirience in defferent universities in Russia and abroad, having their own educational cources developed, chair employees provide high level of education and students' papers.
Graduates of the Chair have speciality No. 552802 "High performance computer systems". 18 Masters of Sciences and 3 engineers are graduated. The Chair students are involved in different projects, devoted to complicated scientific and application models of natural phenomena and technical devices, parallel programming languages, systems and technologies, computations models and the most recent computer architectures. These scienific projects underlie students degree works.
The Chair is equipped with modern hardware. Computer class with 8 machines was created for students. Students have access to Siberian Supercomputer Center cluster (32 Alpha processors), NSU Pentium III- based cluster (34 processors), NSU Opteron-based cluster (8 processors), Joint Supercomputer Center cluster (768 Alpha processors).
Students with good results are welcome to do a degree work, as well as enter magistracy or post-graduate cource .
