This text covers the subjects of computer architecture and parallel and high-performance computing. Topics include: free-space optical interconnect systems; design and analysis of optical interconnects; interconnect system analysis; and fiber-based interconnects.

Contains papers from the October 1996 conference focusing on the potentials and impacts that optical interconnections can have on massively parallel processing. Offers sections on comparative studies for optical interconnects, interconnection networks and system architectures, WDM in MPP systems, tradeoffs in intra-system optical interconnects, scalable interconnection networks, architecture issues, guided-wave components for optical interconnects, and multiprocessor networks and systems. Includes discussion of the roles of university and industry in developing systems. For researchers in computer science, engineering, and optics. No index.

This text gives the proceedings for the fifth conference on parallel processing for scientific computing.

Proceedings of the 5th International Conference on Computing and Information held in Sudbury, Ontario, Canada, in May 1993. Among the topics: algorithms and complexity, distributed computing, concurrency and parallelism, and artificial intelligence. No index. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc. Por

This three-volume work presents a compendium of current and seminal papers on parallel/distributed processing offered at the 22nd International Conference on Parallel Processing, held August 16-20, 1993 in Chicago, Illinois. Topics include processor architectures; mapping algorithms to parallel systems, performance evaluations; fault diagnosis, recovery, and tolerance; cube networks; portable software; synchronization; compilers; hypercube computing; and image processing and graphics. Computer professionals in parallel processing, distributed systems, and software engineering will find this book essential to their complete computer reference library.

This conference was held in Santiago de Compostela, Spain, July 10-14, 2000. This volume contains papers presented at the conference covering a broad range of topics in theoretical and applied wave propagation in the general areas of acoustics, electromagnetism, and elasticity. Both direct and inverse problems are well represented. This volume, along with the three previous ones, presents a state-of-the-art primer for research in wave propagation. The conference is conducted by the Institut National de Recherche en Informatique et en Automatique with the cooperation of SIAM.
