Parallel computing introductory text
in [Fortran]

From: Luka Djigas on 23 Nov 2009 23:38 What would be a good introductory text on the subject of parallel computing currect capabilities of fortran, for someone who has no knowledge of the matter? It would be nice if it had some simple examples which could be demonstated on today's home computers (multi processor, or multi core) (meaning, not purely theoretical). Doesn't have to be a book, a scripta or anything would do just as well. I searched google a little, but it's hard to search for something when you don't know what you're looking for. pp, Luka

Maybe the linked books at http://www.co-array.org/? David Duffy.

Maybe not quite so "introductory", but nevertheless: www.openmp.org, in particular www.openmp.org/presentations/miguel/F95_OpenMPv1_v2.pdf -- Qolin Email: my qname at domain dot com Domain: qomputing

I dont know if you really want it or some more look in "How parallel algo. work", but if you want to write code in openmp, that book is a good choice. F95_OpenMPv1_v2 is also a good article, available free over internet, hast a flowchart type representation of the omp declaration, but less example. you may also look at https://computing.llnl.gov/tutorials/openMP/exercise.html Best |
