章节摘录
Foundations 1We begin our study of parallel programming by building a solid foundation, The most important goal is to clarify the difference between the sequential and parallel programming worlds. In sequential computing, operations are performed one at a time, making it straightforward to reason about the correctness and performance characteristics of a programming. In parallel computing many operations take place at once, complicating our reasoning about correctness and performance, and as a result, modifying our reasoning about correctness and performance, and as a result, modifying our programming approach. This part explains the main consequences of this distinction.
