However, due to the limited computational resources available for classroominstruction, the problems used for illustration and laboratory assignments are limited to simplecanonical types. This means that students will not be able to analyze realistic problems withpractical applications, which are inherently complicated, computationally expensive, and requirehigh-performance computing (HPC) clusters that take advantage of massive parallelization.
