High Performance Computer Systems: Proceedings of the Second Symposium on High Performance Computing, Montpellier, France, 7-9 October 1991 - Tapa dura

Sinopsis

This book is the second from this series of biennial symposia. The volume is intended as a forum for specialists working in various domains associated with Intensive Computing (Parallelism, Vectorization and Scalar), to discuss the state of the art. During the last decade, there has been sustained growth of scientific computing devices: expanding size of memories, incredible CPU performance unheard of just a few years ago, graphic tools transforming results treatment, networks drastically reducing communication time between computers, etc. It seems of prime necessity for the hardware designer to take into consideration the multiple and often conflicting needs of the scientific computing community, and for users to steadily devote time to update their knowledge of computing environments. Therefore, the main purpose of this volume is to give scientists an opportunity to investigate interactively areas such as Architecture of Supercomputers, Compilers, Algorithms, Computational Methods, Numerical Applications, and others.
