Ebook: Parallel Programming in C with MPI and OpenMP

This volume gives a high-level overview of parallel architectures, including processor arrays, centralized multi-processors, distributed multi-processors, commercial multi-computers and commodity clusters. A six-chapter tutorial introduces 25 MPI functions by developing parallel programs to solve a series of increasingly difficult problems. Each program is taken from problem description through design and analysis to implementation and benchmarking on an actual commodity cluster, providing the reader with a wealth of examples.
