Features: This book explains how to design efficient, low-overhead programs under parallel and distributed operating systems, covering both the techniques of parallel program design and the tools for implementing programs. The book is divided into three parts and 13 chapters. Part 1 consists of the first four chapters, introducing the concepts of parallel computing and program design. The second part introduces the languages and libraries for parallel program design, including programming tools such as C++, FortranM, HPF, and MPI. The third part provides several categories of algorithms for parallel programs and common resources. This book is suitable as a textbook for computer science programs in higher education institutions on parallel program design, and is also suitable for readers with corresponding levels to self-study.
