Graduates, advanced undergraduates, and practicing engineers of computer architecture or system design, may find interest in the survey of various architectures within which a computer can be induced to walk and chew gum at the same time. The 37 reprinted journal articles and conference presentations consider fine-grained architecture that parallels at the instruction-set level, course-grained that operates at the loop and subroutine level, and single-instruction stream, multiple-data stream (SIMD) massively parallel architectures that range across vast data structures.
