{"product_id":"loop-parallelization-von-utpal-banerjee","title":"Loop Parallelization","description":"Automatic transformation of a sequential program into a  parallel form is a subject that presents a great intellectual  challenge and promises a great practical award. There is a tremendous  investment in existing sequential programs, and scientists and  engineers continue to write their application programs in sequential  languages (primarily in Fortran). The demand for higher speedups  increases. The job of a restructuring compiler is to discover the  dependence structure and the characteristics of the given machine.  Much attention has been focused on the Fortran  \u003cem\u003edo\u003c\/em\u003e loop. This is  where one expects to find major chunks of computation that need to be  performed repeatedly for different values of the index variable. Many  loop transformations have been designed over the years, and several of  them can be found in any parallelizing compiler currently in use in  industry or at a university research facility. \u003cbr\u003e  The book series on Kappa\u003cem\u003eLoop Transformations for Restructuring  Compilers\u003c\/em\u003ekappa provides a rigorous theory of loop transformations and  dependence analysis. We want to develop the transformations in a  consistent mathematical framework using objects like directed graphs,  matrices, and linear equations. Then, the algorithms that implement  the transformations can be precisely described in terms of certain  abstract mathematical algorithms. The first volume,  \u003cem\u003eLoop\u003c\/em\u003e  \u003cem\u003eTransformations for Restructuring Compilers: The Foundations\u003c\/em\u003e,  provided the general mathematical background needed for loop  transformations (including those basic mathematical algorithms),  discussed data dependence, and introduced the major transformations.  The current volume,  \u003cem\u003eLoop Parallelization\u003c\/em\u003e, builds a detailed  theory of iteration-level loop transformations based on the material  developed in the previous book. \u003cbr\u003e\n            \u003cdiv class=\"aw-variant-hidden-subtitle-div\" id=\"aw-variant-subtitle-9780792394556\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"aw-variant-hidden-subtitle-div\" id=\"aw-variant-subtitle-9781441951410\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Libri","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover - 9780792394556","offer_id":50828374342,"sku":"9780792394556","price":160.49,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"Softcover - 9781441951410","offer_id":39415519707229,"sku":"9781441951410","price":160.49,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0940\/0622\/files\/f0d2ba4b-0e43-468d-8d1c-42b9ee06b8a0.jpg?v=1761800664","url":"https:\/\/shop.autorenwelt.de\/en\/products\/loop-parallelization-von-utpal-banerjee","provider":"Autorenwelt Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
