If you have a working knowledge of Haskell, this hands-on book
shows you how to use the language's many APIs and frameworks for
writing both parallel and concurrent programs. You'll learn how
parallelism exploits multicore processors to speed up
computation-heavy programs, and how concurrency enables you to
write programs with threads for multiple interactions. Author Simon
Marlow walks you through the process with lots of code examples
that you can run, experiment with, and extend. Divided into
separate sections on Parallel and Concurrent Haskell, this book
also includes exercises to help you become familiar with the
concepts presented: Express parallelism in Haskell with the Eval
monad and Evaluation Strategies Parallelize ordinary Haskell code
with the Par monad Build parallel array-based computations, using
the Repa library Use the Accelerate library to run computations
directly on the GPU Work with basic interfaces for writing
concurrent code Build trees of threads for larger and more complex
programs Learn how to build high-speed concurrent network servers
Write distributed programs that run on multiple machines in a
network
