Introduction to parallel programming

Introduction to Parallel Programming and pMatlab v2.0

The computational demands of software continue to outpace the capacities of processor and memory technologies, especially in scientific and engineering programs. One option to improve performance is parallel processing. However, despite decades of research and development, writing parallel programs continues to be difficult. This is especially the case for scientists and engineers who have limi...

Parallel Functional Programming: An Introduction

Due to the absence of side-e ects in a purely functional program, it is relatively easy to partition programs so that sub-programs can be executed in parallel: any computation which is needed to produce the result of the programmay be run as a separate task. There may, however, be implicit controland datadependencies between parallel tasks, which will limit parallelism to a greater or lesser ex...

Introduction to Genetic Programming

Genetic Programming (GP) is a method to evolve computer programs. And the reason we would want to try this is because, as anyone who’s done even half a programming course would know, computer programming is hard. Automatic programming has been the goal of computer scientists for a number of decades. Scientists would like to be able to give the computer a problem and ask the computer to build a ...
