'''Chris Szalwinski''' is a Professor at the [https://scs.senecac.on.ca/ School of Information and Communications Technology] (ICT) of Seneca College and a an independent scientific researcher in his own right.He teaches C, C++, DirectX, and CUDA Parallel Programming. He has taught Game Programming (DirectX) and Human Computer Interaction at ICT and has published comprehensive web sites that contain his course materials. He works currently leads the programming faculty and is updating its course material for the C and C++, diploma and degree subjects. He does research on soft matter mechanics in his spare time.</p><p>This fall (2012), Chris has introduced an ICT course in parallel programming on heterogeneous computers using Nvidia's CUDA technology; that is, a course on how to convert your desktop into your very own supercomputer. This course teaches ICT students to harness the processing power available on today's desktops for tasks that benefit from high performance computing. Students who finish the course should find themselves well-positioned to assist employers and clients in incorporating this new technology into their day-to-day operations.

<p>In fall 2012, Chris is seeking applied research initiatives introduced an ICT course in the field of parallel programming at on heterogeneous computers using Nvidia's CUDA technology; that is, a course on how to use your desktop as your very own supercomputer. He teaches ICT students to provide his students who have completed harness the course with opportunities to apply and refine their skill set by working as research assistants processing power available on applications today's desktop graphics cards for computing tasks that benefit from heterogeneous designhigh performance hardware. He is seeking collaborations between ICTStudents who finish this course should find themselves well-positioned to assist employers and clients in solving embarrassingly data-parallel programming problems.</p><p>This winter (2014), academia, business, and industry on research projects that will advance the state Chris taught an intermediate successor course in parallel computing. This new course covered a variety of this technology parallel algorithms and better prepare his students for the challenges and opportunities arising from the democratization of this aspect of high performance computingplatforms.

<p>Chris maintains a personal interest, outside is interested in supervising applied research initiatives in task-parallel and data-parallel programming that provide students who have completed his Seneca College and ICT duties, in developing courses with opportunities to apply and modelling constitutive relations for soft granular matterrefine their skill set on heterogeneous applications. He firmly believes is interested in joint collaboration with academia, business, and industry on research projects that will advance the state of this is an emerging field which will present numerous technology and better prepare his students for the challenges and opportunities for innovative post-modern programming that are arising in the near futurefield of accelerated computing.

Before joining Seneca College, Chris successfully incorporated cutting-edge software technology within both private sector engineering firms and university government departments and introduced cutting-edge technology into graduate programsat several top-tier academic institutions.</p><p>Chris maintains a personal interest, outside his Seneca College duties, in developing and modelling constitutive relations for soft granular matter. He finds this a fascinating, emerging field, which he believes presents numerous opportunities for innovative programming.
