Laboratories and Research Centres
Name	Description
Laboratorio PARCO (Parallel Computing)	The PARCO (Parallel Computing) lab is devoted to the development, analysis, and tuning of parallel code for multi-core and many-core (GPU) architectures. It provides HW and SW environment for developing in CUDA, OpenCL, OpenACC, OpenMP, MPI targeting performance, power, and energy consumption design constraints.
