From the Publisher: Greg Andrews teaches the fundamental concepts of multithreaded, parallel and distributed computing and relates them to the implementation and performance processes. He presents the appropriate breadth of topics and supports these discussions with an emphasis on performance. Features Emphasizes how to solve problems, with correctness the primary concern and performance an important, but secondary, concern Includes a number of case studies which cover such topics as pthreads, MPI, and OpenMP libraries, as well as programming languages like Java, Ada, high performance Fortran, Linda, Occam, and SR Provides examples using Java syntax and discusses how Java deals with monitors, sockets, and remote method invocation Covers current programming techniques such as semaphores, locks, barriers, monitors, message passing, and remote invocation Concrete examples are executed with complete programs, both shared and distributed Sample applications include scientific computing and distributed systems

Distributed parallel computing using navigational programming
Message Passing (MP) and Distributed Shared Memory (DSM) are the two most common approaches to distributed parallel computing. MP is difficult to use, whereas DSM is not scalable. Performance scalability and ease of programming can be achieved at the ...
An object-oriented parallel programming language for distributed-memory parallel computing platforms
In object-oriented programming (OOP) languages, the ability to encapsulate software concerns of the dominant decomposition in objects is the key to reaching high modularity and loss of complexity in large scale designs. However, distributed-memory ...
The APGAS library: resilient parallel and distributed programming in Java 8
X10 2015: Proceedings of the ACM SIGPLAN Workshop on X10We propose the APGAS library for Java 8. Inspired by the core constructs and semantics of the Resilient X10 programming language, APGAS brings many benefits of the X10 programming model to the Java programmer as a pure, idiomatic Java library. APGAS ...
