SUMMARY:CI Pathways: Parallel Computing Overview
DESCRIPTION:This session will explore the motivation behind parallel progra
 mming and provide an overview of the relevant hardware, including a brief 
 history of its development. Participants will learn about the three most i
 mportant paradigms in modern parallel programming: threads, GPUs, and dist
 ributed clusters. The session will cover key paradigms of parallel program
 ming, different types of parallel architectures in supercomputing clusters
 , and the historical evolution of parallel computing hardware. By the end 
 of the session, attendees will have a solid understanding of these concept
 s and their practical applications in today's computing landscape.Pre-requ
