TOPICS IN PARALLEL AND DISTRIBUTED COMPUTING - ...

Topics in Parallel and Distributed Computing provides resources and guidance for those learning
PDC as well as those teaching students new to the discipline. The pervasiveness of computing
devices containing multicore CPUs and GPUs  including home and office PCs  laptops  and mobile
devices  is making even common users dependent on parallel processing. Certainly  it is no
longer sufficient for even basic programmers to acquire only the traditional sequential
programming skills. The preceding trends point to the need for imparting a broad-based skill
set in PDC technology. However  the rapid changes in computing hardware platforms and devices 
languages  supporting programming environments  and research advances  poses a challenge both
for newcomers and seasoned computer scientists. This edited collection has been developed over
the past several years in conjunction with the IEEE technical committee on parallel processing
(TCPP)  which held several workshops and discussions on learning parallel computing and
integrating parallel concepts into courses throughout computer science curricula.
