This talk is meant to serve as a primer for the talk later in the conference that discusses using OpenMP, which is supported by default in modern gcc (C, Fortran, C++) via the GOMP project, in your Perl code.
This talk is meant to serve as a primer for the later in the conference that discusses using OpenMP in your Perl code. It covers: what OpenMP is, what it can do, and why Perl programmers might care to consider it for your next computationally intense application. It covers the basics of OpenMP in C code; including what it does, and how to use it - parallel constructs, compiling, and running the code.
