Parallel Computing Using the Prefix Problem by S. Lakshmivarahan (English) Hardc

Description: Parallel Computing Using the Prefix Problem by S. Lakshmivarahan, Sudarshan K. Dhall This is an introduction to those aspects of parallel programming and parallel algorithms that relate to a single topic: the prefix problem. This approach provides intense development of a single computational tool used in many parallel computations, showing and discussing its techniques. This may be used for graduate courses, seminars and topics courses. FORMAT Hardcover LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description The prefix operation on a set of data is one of the simplest and most useful building blocks in parallel algorithms. This introduction to those aspects of parallel programming and parallel algorithms that relate to the prefix problem emphasizes its use in a broad range of familiar and important problems. The book illustrates how the prefix operation approach to parallel computing leads to fast and efficient solutions to many different kinds of problems. Students,teachers, programmers, and computer scientists will want to read this clear exposition of an important approach. Author Biography S. Lakshmivarahan is a George Lynn Cross Research Professor at the School of Computer Science, University of Oklahoma.
