Contents:

pt. 1. Basic techniques. Parallel computers -- Message-passing computing -- Embarrassingly parallel computations -- Partitioning and divide-and-conquer strategies -- Pipelined computations -- Synchronous computations -- Load balancing and termination detection -- Programming with shared memory -- pt. 2. Algorithms and applications. Sorting algorithms -- Numerical algorithms -- Image processing -- Searching and optimization -- Appendix A: Basic PVM routines -- Appendix B: Basic MPI routines -- Appendix C: Basic Pthread routines -- Appendix D: Parallel computation models.

Summary: Designed for undergraduate level parallel programming courses, this nontheoretical text covers the techniques of parallel programming in a practical manner that enables students to write and evaluate their parallel programs. It is also supported by the National Science Foundation and is class-tested.
