The most exciting development in parallel computer architecture is the convergence of traditionally disparate approaches on a common machine structure. This book explains the forces behind this convergence of shared-memory, message-passing, data parallel, and data-driven computing architectures. It then examines the design issues that are critical to all parallel architect The most exciting development in parallel computer architecture is the convergence of traditionally disparate approaches on a common machine structure. This book explains the forces behind this convergence of shared-memory, message-passing, data parallel, and data-driven computing architectures. It then examines the design issues that are critical to all parallel architecture across the full range of modern design, covering data access, communication performance, coordination of cooperative work, and correct implementation of useful semantics. It not only describes the hardware and software techniques for addressing each of these issues but also explores how these techniques interact in the same system. Examining architecture from an application-driven perspective, it provides comprehensive discussions of parallel programming for high performance and of workload-driven evaluation, based on understanding hardware-software interactions.

An instant classic, and a logical follow-up to P&H's Computer Architecture A Quantitative Approach. A necessary read for all modern computer architects. --- Bah, got shafted on that first purchase. Let's try this again, players. Amazon third party, 2010-04-18. --- Amazon third party, 2009-11-13. An instant classic, and a logical follow-up to P&H's Computer Architecture A Quantitative Approach.

Very good book! Helped me a lot with my bachelor thesis. It is the classic book of parallel computing. It provides lots of principles of parallel computing in a consistent way.
