Computer scientists from the University of Texas at Austin's Institute for Computational Engineering and Sciences, or ICES, teamed up with researchers at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign to present work at the technical program of the supercomputing conference SC14. It's titled "Parallelization of Reordering Algorithms for Bandwidth and Wavefront Reduction." Here to explain the work and to talk a little about SC14 is Keshav Pingali, a professor in the computer science department at UT Austin and a member of ICES.
