Domain-Specific Programming Systems
Lecture 22: Domain-Specific Programming Systems Parallel Computer Architecture and Programming CMU 15-418/15-618, Spring 2020 Slide acknowledgments: Pat Hanrahan, Zach Devito (Stanford University) Jonathan Ragan-Kelley (MIT, Berkeley) Course themes: Designing computer systems that scale (running faster given more resources) Designing computer systems that are efficient (running faster under constraints on resources) Techniques discussed: Exploiting parallelism in applications Exploiting locality in applications Leveraging hardware specialization (earlier lecture) CMU 15-418/618, Spring 2020 Claim: most software uses modern hardware resources inefficiently ▪ Consider a piece of sequential C code - Call the performance of this code our “baseline performance” ▪ Well-written sequential C code: ~ 5-10x faster ▪ Assembly language program: maybe another small constant factor faster ▪ Java, Python, PHP, etc. ??

Biology, Bioinformatics, Bioengineering, Biophysics, Biostatistics, Neuroscience, Medicine, Ophthalmology, and Dentistry This section contains links to textbooks, books, and articles in digital libraries of several publishers (Springer, Elsevier, Wiley, etc.). Most links will work without login on any campus (or remotely using the institution’s VPN) where the institution (company) subscribes to those digital libraries. For De Gruyter and the associated university presses (Chicago, Columbia, Harvard, Princeton, Yale, etc.) you may have to go through your institution’s library portal first. A red title indicates an excellent item, and a blue title indicates a very good (often introductory) item. A purple year of publication is a warning sign. Titles of Open Access (free access) items are colored green. The library is being converted to conform to the university virtual library model that I developed. This section of the library was updated on 06 September 2021.

Grading Rubric IV. Sample Projects: Screenshots and descriptions of Student Work I. Background I started my study of Computer Science in 1982 as a high school senior when I enrolled in a one semester course titled “Computer Programming.” It was taught by my math teacher and at first seemed like a very mystifying idea. We wrote programs in BASIC b y “bubbling in” punch cards. After completing the program, we took the stack of cards to the back of the room handing them to our teacher. He was the only one allowed to insert the cards into the card reader. The PDP-11 interpreted our program and if it ran successfully, the dot matrix printer printed a table of the whole numbers from one to ten and their squares. It was amazing. The strange thing about this description is that it brings back such fond memories for me. It was during this brief exposure to programming that I was hooked for life. This is what drives me on a daily basis to do the best I can to expose students to the fascinating world of programming. I graduated from UW-Whitewater in 1986 with a Major in Mathematics and a Minor in Computer Science. -

Looking Back
Looking Back Martha E. (Hinds) Crosby Department of Information and Computer Sciences, University of Hawaii [email protected] Abstract: In this chapter, I am reminiscing on some of my experiences from my 53 years of living with computers. I am currently a professor and chair in the department of Information and Computer Sciences at the University of Hawaii. Over the years, I have only experienced computing environments in three locations (Colorado, Washington, D.C. and Hawaii) but they have all been memorable. The computers that I describe are a part of computing history but are rarely documented. Keywords: Computer science, geophysical parameters, mapping program, mathematics. I was not aware of computing before I went to college. I majored in mathematics and I had a professor who believed that computers would be the wave of the future so he gave some short courses on machine language and numerical analysis techniques. Little did I realize that this would make me a qualified applicant for a computing career. I graduated with a Bachelor of Science degree from Colorado State University (CSU) in 1959. At that time, calculators were mechanical and very large and heavy and no one would consider owning one. Also, very few commercial digital computers could be found in the United States and the ones that existed usually occupied a room and were primarily for calculations. I planned to teach mathematics in high school after graduation from CSU. However, I finished my classes a quarter early so teaching positions would be at least a half year away. I was offered positions at Martin Marietta in Denver, Colorado and the National Bureau of Standards (NBS) Central Radio Propagation Laboratories (CRPL) in Boulder, Colorado. -

Primed for Success: The Story of Scientific Design Company “More than a company history, Primed for Success is the story of the chemical industry in the United States. It is comprehensive in scope and detailed in its treatment—an essential read for anyone who studies the chemical industry or has been part of it.” —Thomas M. Connelly, Chief Executive Officer, ACS “Peter Spitz’ detailed and engrossing account of the rise of the petrochemical industry—which set in motion the building blocks of the modern industrial economy—captures how transformative the industry has been to not just economic development, but to so many aspects of modern life.” —Andrew N. Liveris, Former Chairman and CEO, Dow Chemical “Peter Spitz is opening up a new chapter in the history of the petrochemical industry that provides a lasting platform and remembrance of the great entrepreneurs of the industry. The new book should be very valuable for the new generation of chemical engineers as they recognize the vision and creativity of many courageous scientists and engineers.” —Werner Praetorius, President Petrochemicals (ret.), BASF Group “Peter Spitz delivers an essential history with Primed for Success. He details the inside story of a disruptive startup that invented the breakthrough technologies that would help usher in the petrochemical age. The book’s insights on entrepreneurship, successful innovation and the risks of overreach and hubris offer enduring lessons for today’s engineers and professionals as well.” —Robert Westervelt, Editor-in-Chief, Chemical Week “Ralph Landau was one of the giants of the chemical engineering profession. Both experienced and early-stage chemical engineers can appreciate how Ralph created a new business model as well as learn many lessons from his technical and business leadership.” —June C.
