Cloud Standards
Springer 2012; US$ 34.99Cloud computing is often described as providing computing resources the way electric utilities provide energy. In theory, anyone with an adequate connection to the Internet should be able to tap into a cloud provider and get exactly the computing resources they want when they want it, just like plugging into the electricity grid and getting... more...
Parallel Programming with Intel Parallel Studio XE
Wiley 2012; US$ 59.99Optimize code for multi-core processors with Intel's Parallel Studio Parallel programming is rapidly becoming a "must-know" skill for developers. Yet, where to start? This teach-yourself tutorial is an ideal starting point for developers who already know Windows C and C++ and are eager to add parallelism to their code. With a focus on applying tools,... more...
Concurrent and Distributed Computing in Java
Wiley 2005; US$ 150.00Concurrent and Distributed Computing in Java addresses fundamental concepts in concurrent computing with Java examples. The book consists of two parts. The first part deals with techniques for programming in shared-memory based systems. The book covers concepts in Java such as threads, synchronized methods, waits, and notify to expose students to basic... more...
Explaining Algorithms Using Metaphors
Springer 2013; US$ 29.95There is a significant difference between designing a new algorithm, proving its correctness, and teaching it to an audience. When teaching algorithms, the teacher's main goal should be to convey the underlying ideas and to help the students form correct mental models related to the algorithm. This process can often be facilitated by using suitable... more...
An Introduction to Parallel and Vector Scientific Computation
Cambridge University Press 2006; US$ 43.00In this introductory text, the fundamental algorithms of numerical linear algebra are developed in a parallel context. Topics include direct and iterative methods for solving linear systems, numerical methods for the eigenvector/eigenvalue problem and applications to Monte Carlo methods. more...
