A must-have for UPC programmers and applications developers This publication provides an in-depth interpretation of UPC language specifications for use in highly parallel systems. With its extensive use of examples, UPC programming case studies, and illustrations, it offers new insights into developing efficient and effective UPC applications such as high-speed signal processing and pattern recognition. As an added feature, readers have access to an ftp site containing an electronic copy of the full code and can make files for all the examples given in the text. The book provides all the information and guidance needed to use this powerful new programming language: Chapter 1 provides a quick tutorial of the major features of the UPC language Chapter 2 presents the UPC programming model and describes how shared and nonshared data are declared and used Chapter 3 covers the critically important concept of pointers in UPC, identifying the types, declarations, and usage of the various UPC pointers and how they work with arrays Chapter 4 explains how data and work can be distributed in UPC such that data locality is exploited through efficient data declarations and work-sharing constructs Chapter 5 provides extensive treatment of dynamic memory allocation in the shared space Chapter 6 covers thread and data synchronization, explaining the effective mechanisms provided by UPC for mutual exclusion, barriers, and memory consistency control Chapter 7 offers programmers tools needed to write efficient applications Chapter 8 introduces two UPC standard libraries: the collective operations library and the parallel I/O library Appendices feature the UPC v1.1.1 specification; UPC v1.0 collective library specifications; UPC-IO v1.0 specifications; information on how to compile and run UPC programs; and a quick UPC reference card UPC is ubiquitous. It is supported on parallel computers from HP, Cray, SGI, IBM, as well as on computer clusters. This is the authoritative source for learning how to master this programming language; El-Ghazawi, Carlson, and Yelick are among the developers of UPC. A sequel to Mobile Processing in Distributed and Open Environments, this title introduces an extended, universal WAVE-WP model for distributed processing and control in dynamic and open worlds of any natures. The new control theory and technology introduced in the book can be widely used for the design and implementation of many distributed control systems, such as intelligent network management for the Internet, mobile cooperative robots, Rapid Reaction forces, future Combat Systems, robotics and AI, NMD, space research on other planets, and other applications. This title: Demonstrates a much simpler and more efficient application programming Cultivates a new kind of thinking about how large dynamic systems should be designed, organized, tasked, simulated, and controlled Introduces an extended, universal WAVE-WP model for distributed processing Compares the universal WAVE-WP model to other existing systems used in intelligent networking
