The editors and two dozen other contributors have produced a work that cuts across numerical analysis, artificial intelligence, and database management, speaking to questions that lie at the heart of current research in these and many other fields of knowledge: How much commonality in algorithm structure is there across problem domains? What attributes of algorithms are the most important in dictating the structure of a parallel algorithm? How can algorithms be matched with languages and architectures? Their book provides an important starting place for a comprehensive taxonomy of parallel algorithms.
The authors are all in the Department of Electrical Engineering at Purdue University. Leah H. Jamieson is a professor, Dennis Gannon an associate professor, and Robert Douglass head of Machine Intelligence. The Characteristics of Parallel Algorithms is included in the Scientific Computation Series, edited by Dennis Gannon.
