Sourcebook of Parallel Computing (Hardcover)
暫譯: 平行計算資源手冊 (精裝版)

The Sourcebook of Parallel Computing provides a broad overview to parallel computers and parallel computing by first examining the architecture of modern parallel computer systems and identifying key considerations for programming them. Through specific application studies, the authors demonstrate how to identify appropriate software and algorithms and the significant implementation issues.
