An Introduction to Parallel Programming, 2nd Edition, provides a tutorial-based guide to parallel program development. It progresses from small coding examples to more challenging implementations across multi-core and cluster architectures.
The textbook examines key programming models, covering distributed-memory systems with MPI as well as shared-memory environments using Pthreads and OpenMP. It also addresses the fundamentals of parallel hardware and software.
Designed for undergraduate computer science majors, students in departmental service courses, and professionals entering the field, the volume reinforces concepts through exercises focused on compiling, running, and modifying code.
