The two HPC platforms are initialized in both the scalesof computing cluster and embedded system. As shown is Figure 1, HPC cluster platform is a 24nodes IBM iDataPlex, and embedded HPC platform is an unmanned underwater vehicle withARM technique. These platforms can support HPC parallelism productivity using OpenMP, MPI,and Pthread as well as develop computer vision and machine learning courses and research.Table 2 lists the undergraduate required courses that will be impacted across
