The rapid and widespread acceptance of shared-memory multiprocessor
architectures has created a pressing demand for an efficient way to
program these systems. At the same time, developers of technical
and scientific applications in industry and in government
laboratories find they need to parallelize huge volumes of code in
a portable fashion. OpenMP, developed jointly by several parallel
computing vendors to address these issues, is an industry-wide
standard for programming shared-memory and distributed
shared-memory multiprocessors. It consists of a set of compiler
directives and library routines that extend FORTRAN, C, and C++
codes to express shared-memory parallelism.
"Parallel Programming in OpenMP" is the first book to teach both
the novice and expert parallel programmers how to program using
this new standard. The authors, who helped design and implement
OpenMP while at SGI, bring a depth and breadth to the book as
compiler writers, application developers, and performance
engineers.
* Designed so that expert parallel programmers can skip the opening
chapters, which introduce parallel programming to novices, and jump
right into the essentials of OpenMP.
* Presents all the basic OpenMP constructs in FORTRAN, C, and
C++.
* Emphasizes practical concepts to address the concerns of real
application developers.
* Includes high quality example programs that illustrate concepts
of parallel programming as well as all the constructs of
OpenMP.
* Serves as both an effective teaching text and a compact
reference.
* Includes end-of-chapter programming exercises.
