| | Parallel computing - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | A huge number of software systems have been designed for programming parallel computers, both at the operating system and programming language level. | | | A parallel programming model is a set of software technologies to express parallel algorithms and match applications with the underlying parallel systems. | | | Parallel computing is the simultaneous execution of the same task (split up and specially adapted) on multiple processors in order to obtain results faster. |

| | Allen, Wilkinson, and Alley, "Parallel Programming" |
| | The parallel programming objective of that first semester lab assignment is purely to familiarize the students with the parallel programming environment at UNCC by acquainting them with the process of editing, compiling, and running parallel programs. | | | The objective is to familiarize them with the parallel programming environment available to them and simply orients them to the fact that under certain circumstances it is possible to reduce the computation time by throwing multiple processors at the solution of a problem. | | | Between the Freshman year when they are introduced to the concepts of parallel computation, and that Junior/Senior level elective, we are in the process of working additional theory of parallel programming into our Analysis of Algorithms course as well. |

| | PARALLEL PROGRAMMING TOOLS |
| | Parallel computers have a building-block-like architecture--that is, they can be scaled up in size as more computing power is needed. | | | Indeed, developing a parallel programming environment is a priority for all the NSF supercomputer centers. | | | Programs written with these tools can be easily ported to parallel machines with other architectures such as a shared memory machine or a network of workstations. |

| | Parallel Programming - Basic Theory For The Unwary |
| | Parallel systems implementation may be done in software, in hardware, or as a combination of both. | | | A parallel system is a system (software and/or hardware) that allows one to write programs whose different parts are carried out in different threads of execution. | | | A process is an entity that executes a computer program, and manipulates all other resources in order to fulfill the mission of the program. |

| | One reason for this is that most parallel programming systems have failed to insulate their users from the architectures of the machines on which they have run. | | | By hiding the architecture-specific constructs required for high performance inside platform-independent abstractions, parallel object-oriented programming systems may be able to combine the speed of massively-parallel computing with the comfort of sequential programming. | | | These systems cover the whole spectrum of parallel programming paradigms, from data parallelism through dataflow and distributed shared memory to message-passing control parallelism. |

| | Cilk is a language for multithreaded parallel programming based on ANSI C. Cilk is designed for general-purpose parallel programming, but it is especially effective for exploiting dynamic, highly asynchronous parallelism, which can be difficult to write in data-parallel or message-passing style. | | | Unlike many other multithreaded programming systems, Cilk is algorithmic, in that the runtime system employs a scheduler that allows the performance of programs to be estimated accurately based on abstract complexity measures. | | | Cilk provides an effective platform for programming dense and sparse numerical algorithms, such as matrix factorization and N-body simulations, and we are working on other types of applications. |
