MEAP Version 09chapters 1 to 13Parallel and High Performance Computing is an irreplaceable guide for anyone who needs to maximize application performance and reduce execution time. Parallel computing experts Robert Robey and Yuliana Zamora take a fundamental approach to parallel programming, providing novice practitioners the skills needed to tackle any high-performance computing project with modern CPU and GPU hardware. Get under the hood of parallel computing architecture and learn to evaluate hardware performance, scale up your resources to tackle larger problem sizes, and deliver a level of energy efficiency that makes high performance possible on hand-held devices. When you’re done, you’ll be able to build parallel programs that are reliable, robust, and require minimal code maintenance.This book is unique in its breadth, with discussions of parallel algorithms, techniques to successfully develop parallel programs, and wide coverage of the most effective languages for the CPU and GPU. The programming paradigms include MPI, OpenMP threading, and vectorization for the CPU. For the GPU, the book covers OpenMP and OpenACC directive-based approaches and the native-based CUDA and OpenCL languages.
