This hands-on guide to software optimization introduces state-of-the-art
solutions for every key aspect of software performance - both code-based and
algorithm-based.
Two leading HP software performance experts parative optimization
strategies for RISC and for the new Explicitly Parallel puting
(EPIC) design used in Intel IA-64 processors. Using many practical examples,
they offer specific techniques for:
z Predicting and measuring performance - and identifying your best
optimization opportunities
z Storage optimization: cache, system memory, virtual memory, and I/0
z Parallel processing: distributed-memory and shared-memory (SMP and
ccNUMA)
pilers and loop optimization
z Enhancing parallelism: compiler directives, threads, and message passing
z Mathematical libraries and algorithms
Whether you're a developer, ISV, or technical researcher, if you need to
optimize high-performance software on today's leading processors, one book
delivers the advanced techniques and code examples you need: Software
Optimization for High puting.
