Patterns for Parallel Software Design

'Patterns for Parallel Software Design' is essential reading for developers looking to understand Patterns for parallel programming.

Written from an architectural point of view, 'Patterns for Parallel Software Design' presents a pattern-oriented software architecture approach to parallel software design providing solutions in concurrent and distributed programming, based on existing design knowledge.

A pattern-oriented approach to parallel software design is not a design method in the classic sense, but a new way of managing and utilizing existing design knowledge for designing parallel programs. Using this approach leads to parallel software systems that are modular, adaptable, ,understandable and evolvable. Thus, this method aims to enhance not only build-time properties of parallel systems, but also their run-time properties.

Key topics include:
- Use of know solutions in concurrent and distributed programming, applied to their development of parallel programs
- Significant architectural patterns that describe how to divide an algorithm and/or data to find a suitable partition, and hence, linmk it with a programming structure that allows for such a division.
- Delivers proven solutions to the problems faced by parallel programmers

Coverage is aimed at developers new to parallel programming, who require a base to understand parallel software design and implementation for future parallel platforms. 'Patterns for Parallel Software Design' is an essential must-have guide for developers and programmers who want to solve unique design problems.
