Although important improvements have been achieved in this field in the last 30 years, there are still many unresolved issues. These issues arise...
Springer, 2009. — 530 p. The use of parallel programming and architectures is essential for simulating and solving problems in modern computational practice. There has been rapid progress in microprocessor architecture, interconnection technology and software development, which are influencing directly the rapid growth of parallel and distributed computing. However, in order to...
Morgan Kaufmann, 2000. — 163 p. — ISBN10: 1558606718, ISBN13: 978-1558606715. For a number of years, I have believed that advances in software, rather than hardware, held the key to making parallel computing more commonplace. In particular, the lack of a broadly supported standard for programming shared-memory multiprocessors has been a chasm both for users and for software...
Addison Wesley, 2003, - 856 p. Increasingly, parallel processing is being seen as the only cost-effective method for the fast solution of computationally large and data-intensive problems. The emergence of inexpensive parallel computers such as commodity desktop multiprocessors and clusters of workstations or PCs has made such parallel methods generally applicable, as have...
InTech, 2011. — 284 p. During the last decades we have been experiencing the historic evolution of Information and Communication Technology’s integration into our society to the point that many times people use it transparently. As we become able to do more and more with our advanced technologies, and as we hide them and their complexities completely from their users, we will...
Cambridge University Press, 2008. — 754 p. The field of distributed computing covers all aspects of computing and infor- mation access across multiple processing elements connected by any form of communication network, whether local or wide-area in the coverage. Since the advent of the Internet in the 1970s, there has been a steady growth of new applications requiring...
National Academies Press, 2011. - 186 p. - ISBN: 0309159512 The end of dramatic exponential growth in single-processor performance marks the end of the dominance of the single microprocessor in computing. The era of sequential computing must give way to a new era in which parallelism is at the forefront. Although important scientific and engineering challenges lie ahead, this...
