Abstract

The authors argue that by offering a general introduction and overview to networks, computer architectures, scientific visualization, programming languages, a variety of operating systems and hypertext authoring tools, computer science students get a broad comprehensive view of modern high performance computing methodologies. They describe the Computational Science Education Project which was initiated in September 1991, by the US Department of Energy to develop a syllabus for teaching interdisciplinary computational science. The interdisciplinary nature of the project is intended to contribute to national technological competitiveness by producing a body of graduates with the necessary skills to operate effectively in high-performance computing environments.
