A major challenge facing computer science is the need to develop algorithms and software tools to harness the vast power of parallel and vector computers. This book provides in-depth treatment of modern restructuring tools, called supercompilers, which detect the implicit concurrency in programs written in languages such as Fortran and transform these into equivalent concurrent code. This book also features a comprehensive discussion of the methods of program analysis and optimization, including control flow analysis, data flow analysis, and data dependence analysis. Plus, a detailed account of advanced techniques for program transformation, specifically for vectorization and parallelization in both shared-memory and distributed-memory computers.

MIT Press (MA)

A comprehensive overview of OpenMP, the standard application programming interface for shared memory parallel computing―a reference for students and professionals.
"I hope that readers will learn to use the full expressibility and power of OpenMP. This book should provide an excellent introduction to beginners, and the performance section should help those with some experience who want to push OpenMP to its limits." ―from the foreword by David J. Kuck, Intel Fellow, Software and Solutions Group, and Director, Parallel and Distributed Solutions, Intel Corporation
OpenMP, a portable programming interface for shared memory parallel computers, was adopted as an informal standard in 1997 by computer scientists who wanted a unified model on which to base programs for shared memory systems. OpenMP is now used by many software developers; it offers significant advantages over both hand-threading and MPI. Using OpenMP offers a comprehensive introduction to parallel programming concepts and a detailed overview of OpenMP.
Using OpenMP discusses hardware developments, describes where OpenMP is applicable, and compares OpenMP to other programming interfaces for shared and distributed memory parallel architectures. It introduces the individual features of OpenMP, provides many source code examples that demonstrate the use and functionality of the language constructs, and offers tips on writing an efficient OpenMP program. It describes how to use OpenMP in full-scale applications to achieve high performance on large-scale architectures, discussing several case studies in detail, and offers in-depth troubleshooting advice. It explains how OpenMP is translated into explicitly multithreaded code, providing a valuable behind-the-scenes account of OpenMP program performance. Finally, Using OpenMP considers trends likely to influence OpenMP development, offering a glimpse of the possibilities of a future OpenMP 3.0 from the vantage point of the current OpenMP 2.5. With multicore computer use increasing, the need for a comprehensive introduction and overview of the standard interface is clear. 
Using OpenMP provides an essential reference not only for students at both undergraduate and graduate levels but also for professionals who intend to parallelize existing codes or develop new parallel programs for shared memory computer architectures.

The town of Wheatland lies along the west bank of the Genesee River in the southwest corner of Monroe County. In 1786, the adventurous frontiersman Ebenezer “Indian” Allan built a log cabin near the river. The Allan family soon moved on, but the settlement of the entire area west of the Genesee River had begun. The name given to the town in 1821 recognized the successful wheat crops already yielded by its fertile soil. Oatka Creek, which winds its way across town to the river, once powered flour and plaster mills that made the villages and hamlets of Wheatland thriving communities. Today Wheatland remains a rural area known for its picturesque countryside and its recreational opportunities.

Whole Note has an issue. He loves music and longs to play the jazzy tunes in his head but he has no one to play with. To make matters worse, he moves and plays slowly. This is a wonderful story about wanting change. It teaches people about getting up and doing something differently! Author Barbara Chapman says, "I hope The Jamming Whole Note will develop into a series for very young children as a way to unlock some of the musical concepts in a fun way."
