Parallel Programming with MPI - Definitive Reference for Developers and Engineers

Richard Johnson.

Summary

"Parallel Programming with MPI""Parallel Programming with MPI" presents a comprehensive guide for mastering high-performance parallel application development using the Message Passing Interface. From the foundational principles of parallel computing—covering architectural models such as shared versus distributed memory and the essential rationale behind MPI—to deep dives into communicator management, process topologies, and robust workflow strategies, this book equips readers with both critical theoretical grounding and hands-on practical know-how. The text emphasizes scalable, portable program design, detailing installation, environment configuration, and best practices for harnessing the full power of modern compute systems.With a clear focus on both the core MPI programming model and its most advanced features, the book walks readers through all phases of the development life cycle. Readers gain in-depth knowledge of point-to-point and collective communication primitives, synchronization strategies, efficient parallel I/O, and the subtleties of one-sided communication (RMA). Extensive sections are dedicated to hybrid programming, integrating MPI with shared-memory technologies and accelerators, and managing performance through state-of-the-art debugging, profiling, and benchmarking tools. The coverage of fault tolerance, energy efficiency, and security ensures readiness for building resilient and trustworthy parallel software on next-generation platforms, including cloud and containerized environments.Real-world expertise is brought to the fore through case studies and distilled best practices drawn from exascale and petascale deployments. The book offers actionable guidance on software architecture, large-scale engineering, and the integration of open-source and industrial MPI ecosystems. Concluding with an exploration of emerging trends, ongoing standardization, and the future of the MPI landscape, "Parallel Programming with MPI" is an indispensable resource for scientists, engineers, and developers seeking to design, implement, and maintain sophisticated, high-performing applications on distributed systems.

Imminent Domains - Reckoning...

Alessandra Naccarato

Imminent Domains: Reckoning with the Anthropocene invites readers to join a contemplation of survival—our own, and that of the elements that surround us. Using research, lyric prose, and first-hand experiences, Alessandra Naccarato addresses fundamental questions about our modern relationship to nature amidst depictions of landscapes undergoing dramatic transformation.
We trace the veins of harm, memory and meaning amongst ecosystems and bioregions; through history and across continents, from the mines of Cerro Rico to the ruins of Pompeii. Arranged by five central elements of survival—earth, fire, water, air and spirit—these essays refute linearity, just as nature does.
Naccarato offers not blanket answers about our future, but rather myriad ways to find our own, individual response to an imminent question. We are being called to work together; to dig a trench deep and wide enough that the fires around us might stay at bay. How do we turn towards the fire?

Winning the Right Game - How to...

Ron Adner

The basis of competition is changing. Rivalry is shifting from well-defined industries to broader ecosystems: automobiles to mobility platforms; banking to fintech; television broadcasting to video streaming. Your competitors are coming from new directions and pursuing different goals from those of your familiar rivals. In this world, succeeding with the old rules can mean losing the new game. Winning the Right Game introduces the concepts, tools, and frameworks necessary to confront the threat of ecosystem disruption and to develop the strategies that will let your organization play ecosystem offense. 
 
 
 
To succeed in this world, you need to change your perspective on competition, growth, and leadership. Strategy expert Ron Adner offers a new way of thinking, illustrating breakthrough ideas with compelling cases. How did a strategy of ecosystem defense save Wayfair and Spotify from being crushed by Amazon and Apple? How did Oprah Winfrey redraw industry boundaries to transition from television host to multimedia mogul? How did a shift to an alignment mindset enable Microsoft's cloud-based revival? Each was rooted in a new approach to competitors, partners, and timing that you can apply to your own organization. For today's leaders the difference between success and failure is no longer simply winning, but rather being sure that you are winning the right game.

Benny the Blue Whale - A Descent...

Andy Stanton

A bestselling author and AI team up to write a novel. Chaos ensues.

AI is changing the world at frightening speed. A bestselling author decides to find out more…

Is ChatGPT the end of creative industries as we know them? An ethical quagmire from which there is no return? A threat to all our jobs, as we keep hearing on the news?

Bestselling children’s author Andy Stanton has made a career out of writing differently – from the unconventional ‘hero’ of his bestselling Mr Gum series to his penchant for absurdist plots, his children’s books are anything but formulaic.

When a friend introduces him to ChatGPT, the new large language chatbot, Andy is as sceptical as he is curious. Can this jumble of algorithms really mimic the spontaneity of human thought? Could it one day replace human authors like him for good? And are we soon to be ruled over by despotic robot overlords.

He decides there’s only one thing for it – he must test this bot’s capabilities. Eventually, he settles on a prompt that will push the algorithm to its creative limits: ‘tell me a story about a blue whale with a tiny penis.’

Chaos ensues.

What follows is a surprising and illuminating battle between Andy and ChatGPT that maybe, just maybe, might help us all understand AI a little bit better. Join Andy and his beleaguered AI lackey on a rollicking metafictional journey through the art of storytelling. Presenting his prompts and the AI-generated narrative alongside extensive commentary, Stanton provides a startling paean to the art of a good story and boundless human creativity. Hopeful and hilarious, Benny the Blue Whale provides a joyfully anarchic meditation on AI, literature and why we write.
