The reader is expected to be familiar with the C++ programming language and, at least, the basics of the object-oriented programming style used in C++. The reader is also recommended to have a basic understanding of multiple "threads of execution" or concurrency. Previous experience in parallel programming will help, but is not required.
The Charm++ distribution, which contains the the Charm++ Runtime System and related tools, libraries, and so on, can be downloaded here.
While working through this tutorial, the reader may find the information in the various manuals helpful (in particular, the The Charm++ Programming Language Manual).
