Book Description

Teach your students the craft of designing and building parallel programs specifically programs that employ multiple processors operating at once to solve a large computational problem with the clear presentation and fresh, contemporary approach found in Kaminsky’s BUILDING PARALLEL PROGRAMS. Written by experienced instructor and industry developer Alan Kaminsky, this book addresses techniques for parallel programming on both major categories of parallel computers SMPs and clusters. Your students gain first-hand experience working with the increasingly popular programming language, Java, as they complete programs from the text written in Java and use a unique, author-developed Java class library.
