Reviews
From the book reviews: The book presents the current status of parallel programming. Well-organized and well-written, the textbook can be needed worldwide by computer science students that are enrolled in learning parallel programming. ... Each chapter presents in an accessible manner the complex theory behind parallel computing. The numerous figures and code fragments are very helpful. Moreover, each chapter ends with several exercises. (Dana Petcu, zbMATH, Vol. 1295, 2014) The authors provide an excellent introduction to the techniques needed to create and understand parallel programming. ... I recommend this book as a text for a course in parallel programming or for use by programmers learning about parallel programming. It provides a useful mix of theory and practice, with excellent introductions to pthreads and MPI, among others. (Charles Morgan, Computing Reviews, January, 2014)
