{"product_id":"9780521017602","title":"Lectures in Parallel Computation (Cambridge International Series on Parallel Computation)","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe foundations of parallel computation, especially the efficiency of computation, are the concern of this book. Distinguished international researchers have contributed fifteen chapters which together form a coherent stream taking the reader who has little prior knowledge of the field to a position of being familiar with leading edge issues. The book may also function as a source of teaching material and reference for researchers. The first part is devoted to the Parallel Random Access Machine (P-RAM) model of parallel computation. The initial chapters justify and define the model, which is then used for the development of algorithm design in a variety of application areas such as deterministic algorithms, randomisation and algorithm resilience. The second part deals with distributed memory models of computation. The question of efficiently implementing P-RAM algorithms within these models is addressed as are the immensely interesting prospects for general purpose parallel computation.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Cambridge University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48680551874795,"sku":"00000_00000_00000_00000","price":184.95,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0758\/4484\/5803\/files\/9780521017602-1.jpg?v=1781625349","url":"https:\/\/kinokuniya.com.sg\/zh\/products\/9780521017602","provider":"Books Kinokuniya Singapore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
