<p> Linked to real parallel programming software, this hands-on guide covers the techniques of parallel programming in a practical manner that enables users to write and evaluate their parallel programs. Supported by the National Science Foundation and exhaustively tested, it is the first book of its kind that does not require access to a special multiprocessor system, concentrating instead only on parallel programs that can be executed on networked workstations using freely available parallel software tools.Introduces parallel programming techniques as a natural extension to sequential programming, developing the basic techniques of message-passing parallel programming and then studying problem-specific algorithms in both non-numeric and numeric domains. Assumes only C programming knowledge and develops all major techniques through examples, with underlying analyses given throughout. Uses MPI and PVM pseudocodes to describe the algorithms and allow for the implementation of different programming tools, and offers a complete World Wide Web support package that includes examples and instructional materials for using the MPI and PVM software.For professionals in computer science and electrical engineering. </p>
