| Laboratory practice |
* Practice sessions will be self-contained and will deal with several specific problems or scenarios where parallelism plays an important role and where previously explained techniques or technologies are used.
* Each practice will focus on a single scenario or problem and will be composed of previous description and explanation, a proposed code to be analyzed and used, and a series of questions to work on. The student will have to work on the practice, starting on its first practice session and then continuing on its out-of-classroom time. The questions can range from performing an extension of the code, to performing an empirical study of its performance using several parallelism configurations, describing its behavior or functioning, or other types of questions overall focused at assessing the degree to which the student comprehended the problem and the solution.
* It is possible that for some practices, a brief quiz will be used. Nevertheless, such quiz will only be carried out once the practice has finished and submitted by all the students.
