      XSEDE offers FREE online parallel computing course

Graduate and undergraduate students from all disciplines who are 
interested in using parallel computers efficiently and productively are 
invited to register for a FREE online course sponsored by the Extreme 
Science and Engineering Discovery Environment (XSEDE / xsede.org).

The online course is an adaptation of the class Applications of Parallel 
Computers <http://www.cs.berkeley.edu/%7Edemmel/cs267_Spr12/> taught by 
professor Jim Demmel at U.C. Berkeley in Spring 2012. Lecture materials, 
quizzes, and programming exercises will be rolled out weekly from Feb. 
14 to May 2. For more information on the topics covered in the course, 
see https://www.cac.cornell.edu/VW/APC/.

As a prerequisite, students should have some programming experience in C 
or similar language. Enrollment is limited to the first 300 students and 
registration will close Feb. 13. To enroll, first visit 
https://portal.xsede.org/ to create an XSEDE portal account; then visit 
https://portal.xsede.org/course-calendar to register for the 
Applications of Parallel Computers course. Registered students will 
receive accounts to access XSEDE computing resources and consulting 
help. Those who successfully complete all quizzes and programming 
assignments will receive an XSEDE certificate of completion.
