Hi all,

Over the past few years I have been teaching an introductory course for High Performance Computing using Julia. This course is aimed primarily at new graduate students / late undergraduate students with a STEM background, but may be a useful resource for anyone interested learning about high performance computing.

**Course Contents:**

1. Computing Foundations
2. Measuring Performance + Benchmarking
3. Optimisation
4. Parallel Programming
5. Multithreading and Multiprocessing
6. Cluster Computing
7. GPU Programming

All of the resources for the course (lecture notes + YouTube videos + assignments) are available online:

- **Website** : [jamiemair.co.uk/courses/hpc](https://jamiemair.co.uk/courses/hpc)
- **YouTube Playlist** : [High Performance Computing in Julia](https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLUAq6xQKFgGr39PiyrPk_C9dhBKvWcjUA)

**Note** : _I am also giving a talk at JuliaCon 2026 about creating these resources. If you’re attending and interested - the link is [here](https://pretalx.com/juliacon-2026/talk/YWEB3Y/)._

Thanks!
