Topic: "Introduction to HPC Programming Language Chapel: Parallel Approaches"

Speaker: Jemmy Hu, SHARCNET

Chapel is a high productivity parallel programming language developed by Cray Inc. Its syntax is fairly similar to other imperative programming languages such as C or Python. In contrast to other high-level parallel languages, Chapel was designed around a multi-resolution philosophy which allows the programmer to easily express different kinds of parallelism in a portable way. The language aims to support general parallel programming, and make parallel programming at scale far more productive.

In this second webinar in the series, we will give a brief overview of Chapel's multi-resolution parallel approaches. The first webinar's recording can be found here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FG0L4XmkmI4
