- Parallel computing makes it possible to write programs that tackle bigger problems and accomplish more work in less time by using multiple processors. - In the same way that multiple cooks working together can prepare a big meal faster than one cook working alone. - I'm Barron Stone. - And I'm Olivia Stone. This course is part two of a series focused on the basics of concurrent and parallel programming. We'll continue our dive into the concepts and mechanisms for writing concurrent and parallel programs using activities in the kitchen to demonstrate those ideas. - [Barron] Then to help cement those abstract concepts, we'll show you them in action using examples in the Java programming language. By the end of this course, you'll learn how to take a sequential program and make it parallel, and we'll give you a few challenge problems to practice with. - There's a lot to cover, so let's get to it.
