Performance Computing

The need for specialists with high-performance computing skills is growing day by day. This is due to the fact that the high-performance process of processing big data is one of the most pressing problems today. This is especially important in science, economics, physical modeling, medicine, bioinformatics, weather forecasting, etc. This article analyzes the conditions for teaching high-performance computing, the experience of leading universities in the world, and it is established that teaching high-performance computing requires study. High performance computing training was carried out on 3 different hardware equipment (a personal computer, a supercomputer “Param-Bilim” India – Kazakhstan Centre of Excellence in ICT [IKCOEICT] at L.N. Gumilyov Eurasian National University and a quantum computer in the cloud IBM Quantum Experience) using different algorithms in the C ++ and Phyton programming languages. The effectiveness of the calculation results in the educational process was determined as a result of the completed questionnaire.

Performance Computing

At present, along with the dynamic development of computer technology in the world, the most effective ways of solving problems of practical importance are being considered. High performance computing takes the lead in this. Therefore, the development of modern society is closely related to the training of experienced, modern specialists in the field of information technology. This, in turn, depends on the inclusion of new courses in the curriculum and full coverage of these issues in the content of the taught courses. This article analyzes the courses on high performance computing, taught at experimental bases and abroad, on the basis of this, the topics of the special course and the content recommended for implementation in the educational process are determined. During the training, the competencies of students in high performance computing were identified.

Performance Computing

Recent events in the high-performance computing industry have concerned scientists and the general public regarding a crisis or a lack of leadership in the field. That concern is understandable considering the industry's history from 1993 to 1996. Cray Research, the historic leader in supercomputing technology, was unable to survive financially as an independent company and was acquired by Silicon Graphics. Two ambitious new companies that introduced new technologies in the late 1980s and early 1990s—Thinking Machines and Kendall Square Research—were commercial failures and went out of business. And Intel, which introduced its Paragon supercomputer in 1994, discontinued production only two years later.During the same time frame, scientists who had finished the laborious task of writing scientific codes to run on vector parallel supercomputers learned that those codes would have to be rewritten if they were to run on the next-generation, highly parallel architecture. Scientists who are not yet involved in high-performance computing are understandably hesitant about committing their time and energy to such an apparently unstable enterprise.However, beneath the commercial chaos of the last several years, a technological revolution has been occurring. The good news is that the revolution is over, leading to five to ten years of predictable stability, steady improvements in system performance, and increased productivity for scientific applications. It is time for scientists who were sitting on the fence to jump in and reap the benefits of the new technology.
