This text provides one of the broadest presentations of parallel
processing available, including the structure of parallel
processors and parallel algorithms. The emphasis is on mapping
algorithms to highly parallel computers, with extensive coverage of
array and multiprocessor architectures. Early chapters provide
insightful coverage on the analysis of parallel algorithms and
program transformations, effectively integrating a variety of
material previously scattered throughout the literature. Theory and
practice are well balanced across diverse topics in this concise
presentation. For exceptional clarity and comprehension, the author
presents complex material in geometric graphs as well as algebraic
notation. Each chapter includes well-chosen examples, tables
summarizing related key concepts and definitions, and a broad range
of worked exercises.
