The parallel computer is one of the newest and most revolutionary innovations in computer science. This volume traces the development of parallelism in large-scale computers and explains the main principles of pipelined and array-like machines, introducing at the same time a novel structural notation for the classification of all computer architectures. Several current designs (the CRAY 1, CDC CYBER 205, FBS AP-120B, ICL DAP and Burroughs BSP) are analysed in detail and their performances on a number of applications such as Poisson-solving, FFT and matrix operations are compared using a two-parameter characterisation. The full exploitation of such highly parallel architectures is only achieved if associated parallel software is implemented. The reader is therefore guided in the design and selection of numerical algorithms that Execute efficiently on particular machines, and in the coding of these algorithms in FORTRAN-like languages best suited to expressing these parallel constructs. Finally, possible future architectural developments are discussed, with particular reference to the impact of VLSI technology. The book was conceived as a teaching text for advanced undergraduate and postgraduate students, but will be equally useful as handbook for research workers, machine designers and programmers concerned with parallel computers, and as a guide for potential users of such machines, especially in disciplines where large amounts of computer time are regularly used.

Welcome to the proceedings of the 2007 IFIP International Conference on Network and Parallel Computing (NPC 2007) held in Dalian, China. NPC has been a premier conference that has brought together researchers and pr- titioners from academia, industry and governments around the world to advance the theories and technologies of network and parallel computing. The goal of NPC is to establish an international forum for researchers and practitioners to present their - cellent ideas and experiences in all system fields of network and parallel computing. The main focus of NPC 2007 was on the most critical areas of network and parallel computing: network applications, network technologies, network and parallel arc- tectures, and parallel and distributed software. In total, the conference received more than 600 papers from researchers and prac- tioners from over 20 countries and areas. Each paper was reviewed by at least three internationally renowned referees and selected based on its originality, significance, correctness, relevance, and clarity of presentation. Among the high-quality subm- sions, only 53 regular papers were accepted by the conference. All of the selected conference papers are included in the conference proceedings. After the conference, some high-quality papers will be recommended to be published in a special issue of several international journals.
