Explore how to design and use massive parallel systems that run at scale. This work surveys architectures, networks, and software ideas for coordinating many processors to solve hard problems faster, with a focus on practical implementation and real?world constraints.
This edition examines core questions in parallel computing, from how processors connect to how programs synchronize. It explains why dataflow concepts and applicative languages are being explored, and how different network patterns support fast, scalable computation. The discussion stays grounded in what is technologically feasible while outlining models that help researchers and engineers think about the future of very large scale parallel machines.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book explores the theoretical underpinnings of high-performance parallel computing using a vast network of microprocessors. The author, a pioneering figure in the field, presents their in-depth analysis of various connection patterns between processors and how they impact the efficiency of parallel computation. They include insights into the 'data-flow' model of computation, wherein the availability of data (rather than clock cycles) dictates the execution of computational tasks. The practicality and potential advantages of applying a purely applicative, side-effect-free programming language for describing and implementing parallel computation are also examined. Through a series of detailed case studies and illustrative examples, the author demonstrates the effectiveness of their proposed methods, establishing their significance in the field of parallel computing and its applications in scientific research and industry.
