Intel iPSC/860 on campus, Cosmic Environment and Intel simulators on Sparcstations, >Degree offered? MS/PhD CompSci, MS/PhD Math (emphasis on numerical anal.) >Short Curricul(um)(a) Statement: One or two classes a year specializing on parallel computing with specific projects by students. >Remarks relevant to courses offered (e.g., to list courses rather than > Research activities: Most "real" parallel work done as part of thesis project, still working on building specific and regularly offered parallel classes. Most of the emphasis here is on numerical analysis and computational chemistry. Our CS dept, well, is not all that good. The people in Math and Chemistry, however, need real applications *now* for parallel machines, so CS students do research in parallel computing. Plus we've got a couple of crackerjack parallel folks here. -- J. Eric Townsend - jet@uh.edu - Systems Wrangler, UH Dept of Mathematics vox: (713) 749-2126 '91 CB750, DoD# 0378
