This is a detailed overview of using parallelism for achieving more computation in the same amount of elapsed time, covering both "shared memory" and "distributed memory" designs. It will concentrate on principles rather than details, to help attendees make the right decision and proceed in the right direction. It is aimed at users with significant programming experience who need more computation power than can be delivered by a single thread of execution on a single CPU core, including those who already program in parallel. The course is also designed for system administrators who need to support parallel codes, by describing the range of practical options, and their strengths, weaknesses, configuration issues and other important issues.

This course is aimed at those new to programming, or who have never been formally taught the principles and basic concepts of programming. It provides an introduction to the basic concepts common to most high level languages (including Python, Java, Fortran, C, C++, Visual Basic). The aim of the course is to equip attendees with the background knowledge and confidence necessary to tackle many on-line and printed programming tutorials. It may also help attendees in deciding which programming language is suitable for their programming task.

Knowledge of the concepts presented in this course is a pre-requisite for many of the other courses in the Scientific Computing series of courses (although not for the "Python for Absolute Beginners" course).
