Parallel Supercomputing in MIMD Architectures is devoted to
supercomputing on a wide variety of
Multiple-Instruction-Multiple-Data (MIMD)-class parallel machines.
This book describes architectural concepts, commercial and research
hardware implementations, major programming concepts, algorithmic
methods, representative applications, and benefits and drawbacks.
Commercial machines described include Connection Machine 5, NCUBE,
Butterfly, Meiko, Intel iPSC, iPSC/2 and iWarp, DSP3, Multimax,
Sequent, and Teradata. Research machines covered include the
J-Machine, PAX, Concert, and ASP. Operating systems, languages,
translating sequential programs to parallel, and semiautomatic
parallelizing are aspects of MIMD software addressed in Parallel
Supercomputing in MIMD Architectures. MIMD issues such as
scalability, partitioning, processor utilization, and heterogenous
networks are discussed as well.This book is packed with important
information and richly illustrated with diagrams and tables,
Parallel Supercomputing in MIMD Architectures is an essential
reference for computer professionals, program managers,
applications system designers, scientists, engineers, and students
in the computer sciences.
