Synopsis

This work provides a state-of-the-art survey of the applications of processor network architectures and of various highly parallel computational methods. Because of the increasing interdependence of the research activities in these major areas of highly parallel computations, it seemed appropriate to produce this reference and study text. The editor believes that the contributions in this work provide a valuable pointer to the research issues in this area. The book consists of several self-contained chapters, each authored by experts who have actually performed the implementations covered in their respective chapters. The authors provide results of their work, which in some cases are as yet unpublished. The book as text and research material is aimed at graduate/postgraduate students and researchers working in the area of highly parallel computations. It can be used by educators at these levels to illustrate the use and methods of parallel computing. Because the mathematical analyses are lucid, it can also serve as a useful reference book for the practitioners in this field.
