* New approaches to parallel computing are being developed that
make better use of the heterogeneous cluster architecture
* Provides a detailed introduction to parallel computing on
heterogenous clusters
* All concepts and algorithms are illustrated with working
programs that can be compiled and executed on any cluster
* The algorithms discussed have practical applications in a range
of real-life parallel computing problems, such as the N-body
problem, portfolio management, and the modeling of oil
extraction
