- Since our old exam questions are kinda lacking with finals, here is a link to Stanford's version of this course and their online exams. If you notice, their course is very similar to ours and they teach at just an intense level as we do (they must have copied us).

About Me
I am a nth year graduate student in Parallel Computing and Computer Systems under Kathy Yelick and Jim Demmel. I'm doing work in the BeBop group on campus as well as the Unified Parallel C group up at LBL. I did my undergrad at UC Berkeley and was a student in CS 162 back in Spring of 2002 (yes ... it was a while ago). And contrary to popular belief, I do have a life away from my laptop. You'll just have to come to my office hours to find out what its like.
