Parallel and Distributed Computing
Edited by Alberto Ros, ISBN 978-953-307-057-5, Hard cover, 290 pages, Publisher: InTech, Published: January 01, 2010 under CC BY-NC-SA 3.0 license, in subject Computer Science and Engineering
The 14 chapters presented in this book cover a wide variety of representative works ranging from hardware design to application development. Particularly, the topics that are addressed are programmable and reconfigurable devices and systems, dependability of GPUs (General Purpose Units), network topologies, cache coherence protocols, resource allocation, scheduling algorithms, peertopeer networks, largescale network simulation, and parallel routines and algorithms. In this way, the articles included in this book constitute an excellent reference for engineers and researchers who have particular interests in each of these topics in parallel and distributed computing.
