Openacc for Programmers

Autor Sunita Chandrasekaran, Guido Juckeland
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 10 sep 2017

Structura acestui volum este una riguros progresivă: pornim de la conceptele fundamentale de sintaxă și mediu de date, trecem prin arhitectura buclelor paralele și ajungem la implementări complexe în scenarii reale. Suntem de părere că Openacc for Programmers reușește să demistifice utilizarea GPU-urilor pentru calcule științifice, oferind o alternativă viabilă și mai puțin aridă la limbajele de programare paralele tradiționale. Apreciem în mod deosebit faptul că Sunita Chandrasekaran și Guido Juckeland nu se limitează la teorie, ci alocă spațiu generos capitolului de instrumente (compilatoare și debuggere), esențiale pentru orice flux de lucru profesional. Pe linia practică a volumului Parallel Programming with OpenACC de Rob Farber, această lucrare se distinge prin focusul pe standardul OpenACC ca interfață capabilă să vizeze multiple platforme hardware. Dacă în lucrări anterioare, precum Languages and Compilers for Parallel Computing, autorii s-au concentrat pe aspecte teoretice ale compilatoarelor, aici abordarea este orientată direct către programator, punând accent pe pragmatism și eficiență. Organizarea pe capitole reflectă o curbă de învățare naturală: după familiarizarea cu directivele, cititorul este ghidat prin procesul de restructurare a codului și optimizare a performanței, fiind susținut de studii de caz ce demonstrează cum se poate trece de la o versiune naivă de cod la una paralelă optimizată. Recomandăm parcurgerea exercițiilor de la finalul fiecărui capitol, deoarece acestea forțează aplicarea imediată a conceptelor de paralelism la nivel de buclă. Este o resursă tehnică densă, dar accesibilă, care transformă complexitatea arhitecturilor moderne în instrumente de calcul controlabile.

Descriere scurtă

The Complete, NVIDIA-Authorized Guide to OpenACC with Massively Parallel Programming Scientists and technical professionals can use OpenACC to leverage the immense power of modern GPUs without the complexity traditionally associated with programming them. Sponsored by NVIDIA, OpenACC for Programmers is the first comprehensive and practical overview of OpenACC massively parallel programming. OpenACC for Programmers integrates contributions from 19 leading parallel programming experts from academia, public research organizations, and industry. The authors and editors explain each key concept behind OpenACC, demonstrate how to use essential OpenACC development tools, and thoroughly explore each OpenACC feature set. Throughout, you'll find realistic examples, hands-on exercises, and case studies showcasing the efficient use of OpenACC language constructs. You'll discover how OpenACC's language constructs can be translated to maximize application performance, and how its standard interface can target multiple platforms via widely used programming languages. Each chapter builds on what you've already learned, helping you build practical mastery one step at a time, whether you're a GPU programmer, scientist, engineer, or student. All example code and exercise solutions are available for download at GitHub.
