BMI 6420 - Advanced Biomedical Computing

This course presents a survey of advanced techniques for computational science and their application to biomedical problems. The computational techniques presented will include: parallel, distributed and Grid computing. New emerging techniques will be incorporated to the course as appropriate. The course will review all the aspects of these techniques efficiency, portability, scalability, extensibility, security, etc. and provide both hands-on experience and conceptual frameworks to apply advanced computing techniques to problems of interest to the students enrolled in the class.
