The use of technologies for implementing parallel computing in a database in modern education

Abstract

The article outlines the main issues of teaching the implementation of parallel computing in a database in the educational process of a university. Today, the paradigm of vocational education is being replaced by a competence-based one, where the purpose of the orientation of the educational process at the university should be the formation and development of a set of key competencies of students. The analysis of pedagogical aproaches used today to determine the essential characteristics of the competence of IT specialists in the field of parallel computing in databases, as well as the study of the theoretical and practical foundations of its formation allowed us to discover the increased need of society for high-quality training of specialists in the field of databases and the insufficient development of a model for the formation of such a highly competent specialist. The paper outlines the basic principles of parallel computing models, as well as the use of task parallelization algorithms to optimize work with databases. The proposed methodological approach to the implementation of parallel computing in a database using the above models is substantiated. The presented research suggests an approach to the formation of parallel computing programming skills in a database based on the implementation of problem solving practices from the real experience of software companies. As the results of the experiment showed, the differences in the average expert estimates between the control and experimental groups are statistically significant. The obtained research results can be implemented in the development of specialists in parallel computing in databases and contribute to the development of relations with companies offering jobs to graduates of relevant training areas.
