Learner Reviews & Feedback for Parallel Programming in Java by Rice University
About the Course
Parallel programming enables developers to use multicore computers to make their applications run faster by using multiple processors at the
same time. By the end of this course, you will learn how to use popular parallel Java frameworks (such as ForkJoin, Stream, and Phaser) to write
parallel programs for a wide range of multicore platforms including servers, desktops, or mobile devices, while also learning about their
theoretical foundations including computation graphs, ideal parallelism, parallel speedup, Amdahl's Law, data races, and det...

This is a great course in parallel programming. The videos were very clear, summaries reinforced the video material and the programming projects and quizzes were challenging but not overwhelming.
