Parallel computer organization and design
Dubois, Michel, 1953-
Parallel computer organization and design Michel Dubois, University of Southern California, USA, Murali Annavaram, University of Southern California, USA, Per Stenström, Chalmers University of Technology, Sweden. - New York: Cambridge University Press, ©2012. - xvii, 542 pages : illustrations ; 25 cm
Includes index.
Machine generated contents note: 1. Introduction; 2. Impact of technology; 3. Processor microarchitecture; 4. Memory hierarchies; 5. Multiprocessor systems; 6. Interconnection networks; 7. Coherence, synchronization, and memory consistency; 8. Chip multiprocessors; 9. Quantitative evaluations.
"Teaching fundamental design concepts and the challenges of emerging technology, this textbook prepares students for a career designing the computer systems of the future. In-depth coverage of complexity, power, reliability and performance, coupled with treatment of parallelism at all levels, including ILP and TLP, provides the state-of-the-art training that students need. The whole gamut of parallel architecture design options is explained, from core microarchitecture to chip multiprocessors to large-scale multiprocessor systems. All the chapters are self-contained, yet concise enough that the material can be taught in a single semester, making it perfect for use in senior undergraduate and graduate computer architecture courses. The book is also teeming with practical examples to aid the learning process, showing concrete applications of definitions. With simple models and codes used throughout, all material is made open to a broad range of computer engineering/science students with only a basic knowledge of hardware and software"--
