Organization

This offering of CS880/479 has TA support. TA is Snehasish Kumar (ska124@sfu.ca). Please post questions to google groups (unless you wish to maintain privacy) since there may be others with the same question.

The first 10 weeks in the course I will present material on multicore processors and teach parallel programming. Towards the end of the course we may have optional student-led presentations.

For the programming assignments you have the option of working in groups of two. You can't have the same group member across more than two assignments.
