Parallel Computing Principles and Practice

This book sets out the principles of parallel computing, including coverage of both conventional and neural computers. It explains why, where and how parallel computing is used; the fundamental paradigms employed in the field; how systems are programmed or trained; technical aspects including connectivity and processing element complexity; and how system performance is estimated (and why doing so is difficult).Fountain, T. J. is the author of 'Parallel Computing Principles and Practice', published 2006 under ISBN 9780521031899 and ISBN 0521031893.
