Parallel computers and complex systems

Fox, G.

Abstract
     We consider parallel computing as the mapping of one complex system - typically a model of the world - into another complex system - the parallel computer. We study static, dynamic, spatial and temporal properties of both the complex systems and the map between them. The result is a better understanding of which computer architectures are good for which problems, software structure, automatic partitioning of data and performance of parallel machines.
