SUMMARY:Computational Biology as a Compelling Pedagogical Tool in Computer
  Science Education
DESCRIPTION:Workshop\n\nComputational Biology as a Compelling Pedagogical 
 Tool in Computer Science Education\n\nSaravanan\n\nHigh-performance comput
 ing (HPC) and parallel and distributed computing (PDC) are widely discusse
 d topics in computer science (CS) and computer engineering (CE) education.
  In the past decade, high-performance computing has also contributed signi
 ficantly to addressing complex problems in bioengineering, healthcare and 
 systems biology. Therefore, computational biology applications provide sev
 eral compelling examples that can be potent pedagogical tools in teaching 
 high-performance computing. In this paper, we introduce a novel course cur
 riculum to teach high-performance, parallel and distributed computing to s
 enior graduate students (PhD) in a hands-on setup through examples drawn f
 rom a wealth of areas in computational biology. We introduce the concepts 
 of parallel programming, algorithms and architectures and implementations 
 via carefully chosen examples from computational biology. We believe that 
 this course curriculum will provide students an engaging and refreshing in
 troduction to these well-established domains.\n\nTag: Workshop Reg Pass, B
