The New S Language

High Performance Computing Programming and Applications

High Performance Computing Programming and Applications

High Performance Computing: Programming and Applications presents techniques that address new performance issues in the programming of high performance computing (HPC) applications. Omitting tedious details the book discusses hardware architecture concepts and programming techniques that are the most pertinent to application developers for achieving high performance. Even though the text concentrates on C and Fortran the techniques described can be applied to other languages such as C++ and Java. Drawing on their experience with chips from AMD and systems interconnects and software from Cray Inc. the authors explore the problems that create bottlenecks in attaining good performance. They cover techniques that pertain to each of the three levels of parallelism: Message passing between the nodes Shared memory parallelism on the nodes or the multiple instruction multiple data (MIMD) units on the accelerator Vectorization on the inner level After discussing architectural and software challenges the book outlines a strategy for porting and optimizing an existing application to a large massively parallel processor (MPP) system. With a look toward the future it also introduces the use of general purpose graphics processing units (GPGPUs) for carrying out HPC computations. A companion website at www. hybridmulticoreoptimization. com contains all the examples from the book along with updated timing results on the latest released processors. | High Performance Computing Programming and Applications

Fortran 2018 with Parallel Programming

Fortran 2018 with Parallel Programming

The programming language Fortran dates back to 1957 when a team of IBM engineers released the first Fortran Compiler. During the past 60 years the language had been revised and updated several times to incorporate more features to enable writing clean and structured computer programs. The present version is Fortran 2018. Since the dawn of the computer era there had been a constant demand for a “larger” and “faster” machine. To increase the speed there are three hurdles. The density of the active components on a VLSI chip cannot be increased indefinitely and with the increase of the density heat dissipation becomes a major problem. Finally the speed of any signal cannot exceed the velocity of the light. However by using several inexpensive processors in parallel coupled with specialized software and hardware programmers can achieve computing speed similar to a supercomputer. This book can be used to learn the modern Fortran from the beginning and the technique of developing parallel programs using Fortran. It is for anyone who wants to learn Fortran. Knowledge beyond high school mathematics is not required. There is not another book on the market yet which deals with Fortran 2018 as well as parallel programming. FEATURES Descriptions of majority of Fortran 2018 instructions Numerical Model String with Variable Length IEEE Arithmetic and Exceptions Dynamic Memory Management Pointers Bit handling C-Fortran Interoperability Object Oriented Programming Parallel Programming using Coarray Parallel Programming using OpenMP Parallel Programming using Message Passing Interface (MPI) THE AUTHOR Dr Subrata Ray is a retired Professor Indian Association for the Cultivation of Science Kolkata. | Fortran 2018 with Parallel Programming

Random Circulant Matrices

Random Circulant Matrices

Circulant matrices have been around for a long time and have been extensively used in many scientific areas. This book studies the properties of the eigenvalues for various types of circulant matrices such as the usual circulant the reverse circulant and the k-circulant when the dimension of the matrices grow and the entries are random. In particular the behavior of the spectral distribution of the spectral radius and of the appropriate point processes are developed systematically using the method of moments and the various powerful normal approximation results. This behavior varies according as the entries are independent are from a linear process and are light- or heavy-tailed. Arup Bose obtained his B. Stat. M. Stat. and Ph. D. degrees from the Indian Statistical Institute. He has been on its faculty at the Theoretical Statistics and Mathematics Unit Kolkata India since 1991.

Introduction to Stochastic Level Crossing Techniques

Introduction to Stochastic Level Crossing Techniques

Introduction to Stochastic Level Crossing Techniques describes stochastic models and their analysis using the System Point Level Crossing method (abbreviated SPLC or LC). This involves deriving probability density functions (pdfs) or cumulative probability distribution functions (cdfs) of key random variables applying simple level-crossing limit theorems developed by the author. The pdfs and/or cdfs are used to specify operational characteristics about the stochastic model of interest. The chapters describe distinct stochastic models and associated key random variables in the models. For each model a figure of a typical sample path (realization i. e. tracing over time) of the key random variable is displayed. For each model an analytic (Volterra) integral equation for the stationary pdf of the key random variable is created−by inspection of the sample path using the simple LC limit theorems. This LC method bypasses a great deal of algebra usually required by other methods of analysis. The integral equations will be solved directly or computationally. This book is meant for students of mathematics management science engineering natural sciences and researchers who use applied probability. It will also be useful to technical workers in a range of professions. Key Features: A description of one representative stochastic model (e. g. a single-server M/G/1 queue; a multiple server M/M/c queue; an inventory system; etc. ) Construction of a typical sample path of the key random variable of interest (e. g. the virtual waiting time or workload in queues; the net on-hand inventory in inventory systems; etc. ) Statements of the simple LC theorems which connect the sample-path upcrossing and downcrossing rates across state-space levels to simple mathematical functions of the stationary pdf of the key random variable at those state-space levels Creation of (usually Volterra) integral equations for the stationary pdf of the key random variable by inspection of the sample path Direct analytic solution of the integral equations where feasible; or computational solutions of the integral equations Use of the derived stationary pdfs for obtaining operational characteristics of the model
