Introducation to Parallel Computing is a complete end-to-end source of information on almost all aspects of parallel computing from introduction to architectures to programming paradigms to algorithms to programming standards. It is the only book to have complete coverage of traditional Computer Science algorithms (sorting, graph and matrix algorithms), scientific computing algorithms (FFT, sparse matrix computations, N-body methods), and data intensive algorithms (search, dynamic programming, data-mining).

Take advantage of the power of parallel computers with this comprehensive introduction to methods for the design, implementation, and analysis of parallel algorithms. You'll examine many important core topics, including sorting and graph algorithms, discrete optimization techniques, and scientific computing applications, as you consider parallel algorithms for realistic machine models. Features: presents parallel algorithms as a small set of basic data communication operations in order to simplify their design and increase understanding; emphasizes practical issues of performance, efficiency, and scalability; provides a self-contained discussion of the basic concepts of parallel computer architectures; covers algorithms for scientific computation, such as dense and sparse matrix computations, linear system solving, finite elements, and FFT; discusses algorithms for combinatorial optimization, including branch-and-bound, heuristic search, and dynamic programming; incorporates illustrative examples of parallel programs for commercially available computers; and contains extensive figures and examples that illustrate the workings of algorithms on different architectures.
