Alexander Supalov, Andrey Semin, Michael Klemm, Christopher Dahnken · Apress eBooks · 2014
In order to optimize software you need to understand hardware. In this chapter we give you a brief overview of the typical system architectures found in the high-performance computing (HPC) today. We also introduce terminology that will be used throughout the book. These keywords were added by machine and not by the authors. This process is experimental and the keywords may be updated as the learning algorithm improves.
