Features: This book comprehensively introduces various aspects of parallel computing, including architecture, programming paradigms, algorithms and applications, and standards. It covers both emerging technologies in parallel computing and traditional algorithms such as sorting, searching, graphs, and dynamic programming. The book strives to adopt architecture that is independent of the underlying platform and designs implementations based on abstract models. It selects MPI, POSIX threads, and OpenMP as programming models and reflects the evolving combinations of parallel computing applications in different examples. The book is clearly written with vivid examples and includes numerous exercises. It is suitable as a textbook or reference for undergraduate and graduate students in computer science and related fields.
