Programming Massively Parallel Processors: A Hands-on Approach — Wen-mei W. Hwu et al. (2022)

Book Description

Programming Massively Parallel Processors: A Hands-on Approach shows both student and professional alike the basic concepts of parallel programming and GPU architecture. Various techniques for constructing parallel programs are explored in detail. Case studies demonstrate the development process, which begins with computational thinking and ends with effective and efficient parallel programs. Topics of performance, floating-point format, parallel patterns, and dynamic parallelism are covered in depth. For this new edition, the authors are updating their coverage of CUDA, including the concept of unified memory, and expanding content in areas such as threads, while still retaining its concise, intuitive, practical approach based on years of road-testing in the authors’ own parallel computing courses. Teaches computational thinking and problem-solving techniques that facilitate high-performance parallel computing Updated to utilize CUDA version 10.0, NVIDIA’s software development tool created specifically for massively parallel environments Features new content on unified memory, as well as expanded content on threads, streams, warp divergence, and OpenMP Includes updated and new case studies
