Single processor supercomputers have achieved great speeds and have been pushing hardware technology to the physical limit of chip manufacturing. But soon this trend will come to an end, because there are physical and architectural bounds, which limit the computational power that can be achieved with a single processor system. In this book, we study advanced computer architectures that utilize parallelism via multiple processing units. | Wiley Series on Parallel ani Distributed Computing Albert Zomaya Series Editor WILEY ADVANCED COM PUTER ARCHITECTURE and PARALLEL PROCESSING 8 HESHAM EL-REWINI MOSTAFAABD-EL-BARR ADVANCED COMPUTER ARCHITECTURE AND PARALLEL PROCESSING team Line - live informative Non-cost and Genuine WILEY SERIES ON PARALLEL AND DISTRIBUTED COMPUTING SERIES EDITOR Albert Y.
