Class Objectives
/Class Outline
In this class, students engage in exercises on specialized and practical content based on the knowledge that has been widely learned in previous lectures of the Faculty of Information Science. Students learn the ability to find solutions for given exercises and problems, to deal with them, and to summarize the results as reports in this class. Exercises will be conducted on the theme of "parallel processing" and "data analysis using R packages". All students engage in both themes through this class.  
 
Class Schedule week 1. guidance for the two themes, distribution for materials and notes.

2-4. Parallel processing (Ito)
Week 2: Parallel processing and parallel programming using MPI
Week 3: Parallel processing using MPI
Week 4: Parallel numerical integration using MPI

5-7. data analysis using R packages (Hirakawa)
week 5 Data handling using tidyverse package
week 6 Data visualization using ggplot2 package
week 7 Exercises in psychological data analysis

week 8. Preparation and writing of final reports

Assign final report tasks for each theme.
