Description
This book is intended for those that already have some knowledge of parallel processing today and want to learn about the history of the three areas. In parallel hardware, every major parallel architecture type from 1980 has scaled-up in performance and scaled-out into commodity microprocessors and GPUs, so that every personal and embedded device is a parallel processor. There has been a confluence of parallel architecture types into hybrid parallel systems. Much of the impetus for change has been Moore's Law, but as clock speed
Author
David Padua received his Ph.D. from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign in 1980. In 1985, after a few years at the Universidad Simón Bolívar in Venezuela, he returned to the University of Illinois where he is now Donald Biggar Willet Professor in Engineering. He has served as program committee member, program chair, or general chair to more than 70 conferences and workshops. He was the Editor-in-Chief of Springer-Verlag's Encyclopedia of Parallel Computing and is currently a member of the editorial board of the Communications of the ACM, the Journal of Parallel and Distributed Computing, and the International Journal of Parallel Programming.
Dr. Padua has supervised the dissertations of 30 Ph.D. students. He has devoted much of his career to the study of languages, tools, and compilers for parallel computing and has authored or co-authored more than 170 papers in these areas. He received the 2015 IEEE Computer Society Harry H. Goode Award. In 2017, he awarded an honorary doctorate from the University of Valladolid in Spain. He is a Fellow of the ACM and the IEEE.
