Features: This book is written by Professor Michael J. Quinn of Oregon State University in the USA, based on his many years of teaching the "Parallel Programming" course. It primarily introduces parallel programming using C, combined with MPI and OpenMP. The content includes parallel architecture, parallel algorithm design, message passing programming, the Sieve of Eratosthenes, the Floyd algorithm, performance analysis, matrix-vector multiplication, document classification, Monte Carlo methods, matrix multiplication, solving linear equations, finite difference methods, sorting, fast Fourier transforms, combinatorial search, shared memory programming, and the integration of OpenMP and MPI, as well as 5 appendices. The book is organized in a teaching-oriented manner, using a four-step parallel programming approach—partitioning, communication, aggregation, and mapping—to address various practical parallel problems. This enables readers to master systematic parallel programming methods and develop efficient parallel programs. This book is not only an excellent textbook for parallel programming but also provides valuable reference material for a wide range of professionals in related fields.
