Amazon.com Review
A text on industrial system development using object- oriented techniques, rather than a book on object-oriented programming. Will be useful to systems developers and those seeking a deeper understanding of object orientation as it relates to the development process.
Review
“In this book Jacobson establishes a new direction for the future of software engineering practice. It is a thorough presentation of ideas and techniques that are both solidly proven and simultaneously at the leading edge of software engineering methodology.” Larry L. Constantine, RODP, Organization

Product Description
Performance Optimization of Numerically Intensive Codes offers a comprehensive, tutorial-style, hands-on, introductory and intermediate-level treatment of all the essential ingredients for achieving high performance in numerical computations on modern computers. The authors explain computer architectures, data traffic and issues related to performance of serial and parallel code optimization exemplified by actual programs written for algorithms of wide interest. The unique hands-on style is achieved by extensive case studies using realistic computational problems. The performance gain obtained by applying the techniques described in this book can be very significant. The book bridges the gap between the literature in system architecture, the one in numerical methods and the occasional descriptions of optimization topics in computer vendors’ literature. It also allows readers to better judge the suitability of certain computer architecture to their computational requirements.
From the Publisher
Audience This book will be useful to scientists, engineers and students interested in computational science and high-performance programming. It can be used as a reference book by the practitioner and as basic material for various undergraduate and graduate classes in computer and computational science. Readers should be familiar with a programming language such as Fortran or C.
