C++ AMP: Accelerated Massive Parallelism with Microsoft Visual C++

Microsoft Press, 2012

For most of computing history, we benefited from exponential increases in performance of scalar processors. That has come to an end. We are now at the dawn of the heterogeneous parallel computing era. With all applications being power-sensitive and all computing systems being power-limited, from mobile to cloud, future computing...

Random Polymer Models

Imperial College Press, 2007

This work deals with a well-defined class of probabilistic models. The focus is on polymers. More precisely I should say that the focus is on the equilibrium statistical mechanics of a class of polymers: dynamical and non-equilibrium phenomena are not treated, reflecting the fact that these directions are at the moment...

Parallel Programming with Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 Step by Step

Microsoft Press, 2011

Parallel programming truly redefines the programming model for multicore architecture, which has become commonplace. For this reason, parallel programming has been elevated to a core technology in the Microsoft .NET Framework 4.

Facetious,...

Concurrent Programming in Mac OS X and iOS: Unleash Multicore Performance with Grand Central Dispatch

O'Reilly, 2011

With the introduction of multicore devices such as the iPad 2 and the quad-core Mac- Book Pro, writing multithreaded apps that take advantage of multiple cores on a device has become one of the biggest headaches for developers. Take, for instance, the introduction of iPad 2. On the launch day, only a few applications, basically those...

Programming Reactive Extensions and LINQ

Apress, 2011

Right now, we as programmers are at an impasse—a transition period between the well-understood world of imperative programming, and a world that is increasingly at odds with this model. In the ’80s, everything was simple: one machine, one thread, no network.

CPUs are now scaling horizontally, adding more and more...
