Semester Elective Project

Ideas

Below are some ideas for the semester-long elective project.

  • Work with a faculty member (try math or chemistry!) to develop a new parallel code or parallelize an existing serial code.
  • Parallelize an existing serial code from another source.
  • Perform a performance analysis and optimize an existing parallel code.
  • Compare and analyize at least three existing algorithms or approaches to solving a parallel problem.
    • Parallel sorting algorithms
