Multithreaded Computer Architecture: A Summary of the State of the ART
Multithreaded computer architecture has emerged as one of the most promising and exciting avenues for the exploitation of parallelism. This new field represents the confluence of several independent research directions which have united over a common set of issues and techniques. Multithreading draws on recent advances in dataflow, RISC, compiling for fine-grained parallel execution, and dynamic resource management. It offers the hope of dramatic performance increases through parallel execution for a broad spectrum of significant applications based on extensions to `traditional' approaches. Multithreaded Computer Architecture is divided into four parts, reflecting four major perspectives on ...
Parallel Computing on Distributed Memory Multiprocessors
Proceedings of the NATO Advanced Study Institute on Parallel Computing on Distributed Memory Multiprocessors, held at Bilkent University, Ankara, Turkey, July 1-13, 1991
Principles of Computer System Design
Principles of Computer System Design is the first textbook to take a principles-based approach to the computer system design. It identifies, examines, and illustrates fundamental concepts in computer system design that are common across operating systems, networks, database systems, distributed systems, programming languages, software engineering, security, fault tolerance, and architecture.Through carefully analyzed case studies from each of these disciplines, it demonstrates how to apply these concepts to tackle practical system design problems. To support the focus on design, the text identifies and explains abstractions that have proven successful in practice such as remote procedure cal...
Shared-Memory Synchronization
Zusammenfassung: This book offers a comprehensive survey of shared-memory synchronization, with an emphasis on "systems-level" issues. It includes sufficient coverage of architectural details to understand correctness and performance on modern multicore machines, and sufficient coverage of higher-level issues to understand how synchronization is embedded in modern programming languages. The primary intended audience for this book is "systems programmers"--the authors of operating systems, library packages, language run-time systems, concurrent data structures, and server and utility programs. Much of the discussion should also be of interest to application programmers who want to make good use of the synchronization mechanisms available to them, and to computer architects who want to understand the ramifications of their design decisions on systems-level code
Programming Language Pragmatics
Programming Language Pragmatics addresses the fundamental principles at work in the most important contemporary languages, highlights the critical relationship between language design and language implementation, and devotes special attention to issues of importance to the expert programmer. Thanks to its rigorous but accessible teaching style, you'll emerge better prepared to choose the best language for particular projects, to make more effective use of languages you already know, and to learn new languages quickly and completely.
ECOOP 2004 - Object-Oriented Programming
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 18th European Conference on Object-Oriented Programming, ECOOP 2004, held in Oslo, Norway in June 2004. The 25 revised full papers presented together with the abstracts of 2 invited talks were carefully reviewed and selected from a total of 132 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on encapsulation, program analysis, software engineering, aspects, middleware, types, verification, and systems.
Languages and Compilers for Parallel Computing
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-workshop proceedings of the 11th International Workshop on Languages and Compilers for Parallel Computing, LCPC'98, held in Chapel Hill, North Carolina, USA in August 1998. The 24 revised full papers presented have gone through two rounds of selection and reviewing. The volume is divided in topical sections on Java, locality, network computing, Fortran, irregular applications, instructions scheduling, and dependence analysis.
Transactional Memory, Second Edition
The advent of multicore processors has renewed interest in the idea of incorporating transactions into the programming model used to write parallel programs. This approach, known as transactional memory, offers an alternative, and hopefully better, way to coordinate concurrent threads. The ACI (atomicity, consistency, isolation) properties of transactions provide a foundation to ensure that concurrent reads and writes of shared data do not produce inconsistent or incorrect results. At a higher level, a computation wrapped in a transaction executes atomically - either it completes successfully and commits its result in its entirety or it aborts. In addition, isolation ensures the transaction ...
