Preface
Innovations in hardware architecture, such as hyper-threading or multicore proces-
sors, make parallel computing resources available for computer systems in differ-
ent areas, including desktop and laptop computers, mobile devices, and embedded
systems. However, the efficient usage of the parallel computing resources requires
parallel programming techniques. Today, many standard software products are al-
ready based on concepts of parallel programming to use the hardware resources of
multicore processors efficiently. This trend will continue and the need for parallel
programming will extend to all areas of software development. The application area
will be much larger than the area of scientific computing, which used to be the main
area for parallel computing for many years. The expansion of the application area
for parallel computing will lead to an enormous need for software developers with
parallel programming skills. Some chip manufacturers already demand to include
parallel programming as a standard course in computer science curricula. A more
recent trend is the use of Graphics Processing Units (GPUs), which may comprise
several thousands of cores, for the execution of compute-intensive non-graphics ap-
plications.
This book covers the new development in processor architecture and parallel
hardware. Moreover, important parallel programming techniques that are necessary
for developing efficient programs for multicore processors as well as for parallel
cluster systems or supercomputers are provided. Both shared and distributed address
space architectures are covered. The main goal of the book is to present parallel
programming techniques that can be used in many situations for many application
areas and to enable the reader to develop correct and efficient parallel programs.
Many example programs and exercises are provided to support this goal and to show
how the techniques can be applied to further applications. The book can be used as a
textbook for students as well as a reference book for professionals. The material of
the book has been used for courses in parallel programming at different universities
for many years.
This third edition of the English book on parallel programming is an updated
and revised version based on the second edition of this book from 2013. The three
earlier German editions appeared in 2000, 2007, and 2012, respectively. The update
