Synopsis

This is the first book on parallel MATLAB and the first parallel computing book focused on the design, code, debug, and test techniques required to quickly produce efficient parallel programs. MATLAB is currently the dominant language of technical computing with one million users worldwide, many of whom can benefit from the increased power offered by inexpensive multicore and multinode parallel computers. MATLAB is an ideal environment for learning about parallel computing, allowing the user to focus on parallel algorithms instead of the details of implementation. This book is a reference for professional scientists and engineers and will also be beneficial to graduate students and advanced undergraduate students as a textbook for a parallel computing course.
