Designing and Building Parallel Programs Résumé

Designing and Building Parallel Programs: Concepts and Tools for Parallel Software Engineering FOSTER

In this book, Foster builds actual applications programs used to solve real engineering problems in a variety of disciplines while using the parallel computing platform, the platform of choice within the commercial world. Parallel computing-once found only in academic/research environments-is now becoming the computing platform of choice in a wide range of disciplines within the academic and commercial world. This text introduces the parallel paradigm, introduces tools of parallel programming through a variety of programming languages, and concludes by detailing actual applications examples from engineering, scientific and financial viewpoints.

À propos de FOSTER

I hold positions as Scientist in the Mathematics and Computer Science Division at Argonne National Laboratory, and Associate Professor of Computer Science at the University of Chicago. I lead computer science projects developing parallel languages and tools and a computational science effort developing parallel climate models. My major research interests are in various aspects of parallel and distributed computing: algorithms, languages, tools. Recently, I've been working on the techniques required to integrate high-performance computing into large-scale internetworked environments.
