The aim of this project is to apply the methods and techniques learned in class to a real world problem. Your objective is to accelerate an algorithm by parallelizing it$.$ The algorithm should be up$-$to$-$date and used in real world applications.

A good example of a project is:

Application: Object recognition

Algorithm: Convolutional Neural Network

where in such project the team is going to parallelize the execution of the algorithm using various parallel techniques and implement $3$ programs with MPI, OpenMP, and CUDA C$.$ The team that creates OpenACC implementation gets a bonus.

The performance of each implementation should be examined and the results should be reported and discussed.
