I try to design activities to provide significant experiences for students so that they are able to build a strong concept network. Activities that I suggest are based on problem solving and active learning. All labs are based on Open Source tools.
PThread, Threading Building Block, OpenMP, OpenCL and OpenMPI. We use the Amdahl's law to evaluate achievable speedup, use the Valgrind profiler to identify parallelizable code and diagnose common slowdown pitfals using performance counters.
