Introduction to High Performance Scientific Computing

Introduction to High Performance Scientific Computing teaches the bridging topics between numerical analysis, parallel computing, code performance, large scale applications.

Book Description

While good texts exist on numerical modeling, numerical linear algebra, computer architecture, parallel computing, performance optimization, no book brings together these strands in a unified manner. The need for a book such as the present became apparent to the author working at a computing center: users are domain experts who not necessarily have mastery of all the background that would make them efficient computational scientists.
