The first book devoted to the fundamental issues involved in the performance of parallel computers, Multiprocessor Performance describes the architecture of such systems, identifies the factors that enhance or limit their speed, addresses problems related to the structure of application programs, and shows how to determine the degree of performance improvement that can be obtained via parallelism. Examines the limiting effects of program structure via study of program behavior models.
