Parallel Processing: From Applications to Systems

By Dan I. Moldovan

This text provides one of the broadest presentations of parallelprocessing available, including the structure of parallelprocessors and parallel algorithms. The emphasis is on mappingalgorithms to highly parallel computers, with extensive coverage ofarray and multiprocessor architectures. Early chapters provideinsightful coverage on the analysis of parallel algorithms andprogram transformations, effectively integrating a variety ofmaterial previously scattered throughout the literature. Theory andpractice are well balanced across diverse topics in this concisepresentation. For exceptional clarity and comprehension, the authorpresents complex material in geometric graphs as well as algebraicnotation. Each chapter includes well-chosen examples, tablessummarizing related key concepts and definitions, and a broad rangeof worked exercises.
