Description
Bringing together contributions from researchers at the forefront of a leading-edge technology, this special issue of the Wiley journal "Concurrency: Practice and Experience" presents results from research centres worldwide. It provides actual experiences in solving computationally intensive problems, often with real-time constraints and on a variety of specialist machines. The book describes leading-edge systems such as massively parallel computers, parallel and distributed object-oriented systems and different types of connection machines. Applications from a wide range of disciplines are also covered, from neural networking to image analysis, fluid flows and seismic modelling.
