Foreword Preface Chapter 1: Introduction Chapter 2 Getting started with OpenMP Chapter 3: Exploiting loop-level parallelism Chapter 4: Beyond loop-level parallelism: Parallel Regions Chapter 5: Synchronization Chapter 6: Performance Glossary References Index
* Designed so that expert parallel programmers can skip the opening
chapters, which introduce parallel programming to novices, and jump
right into the essentials of OpenMP.
* Presents all the basic OpenMP constructs in FORTRAN, C, and
C++.
* Emphasizes practical concepts to address the concerns of real
application developers.
* Includes high quality example programs that illustrate concepts
of parallel programming as well as all the constructs of
OpenMP.
* Serves as both an effective teaching text and a compact
reference.
* Includes end-of-chapter programming exercises.

"This book will provide a valuable resource for the OpenMP community." - Timothy G. Mattson, Intel Corporation "This book has an important role to play in the HPC community-both for introducing practicing professionals to OpenMP and for educating students and professionals about parallel programming. I'm happy to see that the authors have put together such a complete OpenMP presentation." - Mary E. Zozel, Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory
