Strategien zur Lösung wissenschaftlicher Probleme mittels Fortran 90 und C++ sind Thema dieses Buches. Behandelt werden Fragestellungen, denen sich Naturwissenschaftler im Alltag häufig gegenübersehen, wie Simulationen, Graphik, Datenanalyse und die Manipulation von Datenstrukturen. Den Autoren kommt es nicht darauf an, zu zeigen, wie man ein Problem codiert - sie zielen eher auf die Vermittlung allgemeingültiger Prinzipien ab. Mit zahlreichen Beispielen. (8/98)

Containing over 300 entries in an A-Z format, the Encyclopedia of Parallel Computing provides easy, intuitive access to relevant information for professionals and researchers seeking access to any aspect within the broad field of parallel computing. Topics for this comprehensive reference were selected, written, and peer-reviewed by an international pool of distinguished researchers in the field. The Encyclopedia is broad in scope, covering machine organization, programming languages, algorithms, and applications. Within each area, concepts, designs, and specific implementations are presented. The highly-structured essays in this work comprise synonyms, a definition and discussion of the topic, bibliographies, and links to related literature. Extensive cross-references to other entries within the Encyclopedia support efficient, user-friendly searchers for immediate access to useful information. Key concepts presented in the Encyclopedia of Parallel Computing include; laws and metrics; specific numerical and non-numerical algorithms; asynchronous algorithms; libraries of subroutines; benchmark suites; applications; sequential consistency and cache coherency; machine classes such as clusters, shared-memory multiprocessors, special-purpose machines and dataflow machines; specific machines such as Cray supercomputers, IBM’s cell processor and Intel’s multicore machines; race detection and auto parallelization; parallel programming languages, synchronization primitives, collective operations, message passing libraries, checkpointing, and operating systems. Topics covered: Speedup, Efficiency, Isoefficiency, Redundancy, Amdahls law, Computer Architecture Concepts, Parallel Machine Designs, Benmarks, Parallel Programming concepts & design, Algorithms, Parallel applications.

The Connection Machine is one of the first commercially available machines which allows users to explore massive parallelism for the solution of large scale engineering and scientific applications. The CM2 features up to 64,000 processors. This is parallelism on an unprecedented scale which opens up new areas of computational science. Because of the overwhelming response to the first edition, a new edition has been prepared. New papers which document recent developments are added, bringing the volume up-to-date.
