A Practical Approach to High-Performance Computing by Sergei Kurgalin

The book discusses the fundamentals of high-performance computing. The authors combine visualization, comprehensibility, and strictness in their material presentation, and thus influence the reader towards practical application and learning how to solve real computing problems. They address both key approaches to programming modern computing systems: multithreading-based parallelizing in shared memory systems, and applying message-passing technologies in distributed systems.

The book is suitable for undergraduate and graduate students, and for researchers and practitioners engaged with high-performance computing systems. Each chapter begins with a theoretical part, where the relevant terminology is introduced along with the basic theoretical results and methods of parallel programming, and concludes with a list of test questions and problems of varying difficulty. The authors include many solutions and hints, and often sample code.

Dr. Sergei Kurgalin is a Professor and Head of the Department of Digital Technologies at Voronezh State University, Russia.

Dr. Sergei Borzunov is an Associate Professor at the same institution.
