Emerging scientific and industrial applications in today’s world require significant computing power. Modern software tools are available for such platforms but are relatively complex and require the use of innovative programming models. One promising area in modern software design is the development, analysis, and implementation of algorithms and adaptive methods. These advancements in programming are promising but lack relevant research and understanding. Formal and Adaptive Methods for Automation of Parallel Programs Construction: Emerging Research and Opportunities is an essential reference source that solves the problem of the development of efficient models, methods, and tools for parallel programming automation based on the algebra of algorithms, term rewriting, and auto-tuning paradigms. The results of this book will help to further develop and improve existing research on design, synthesis, and optimization of sequential and parallel algorithms and programs. Featuring research on topics such as auto-tuning methods, graphics processing, and algorithmic language, this book is ideally designed for mathematicians, software engineers, data scientists, researchers, academicians, and students seeking coverage on developing tools for automated design and parallel programs.

Computing Science is a science of constructive methods. The solution of a problem has to be described formally by constructive techniques, if it is to be evaluated on a computer. The Marktoberdorf Advanced Study Institute 1988 presented a comprehensive survey of the recent research in constructive methods in Computing Science. Some approaches to a methodological framework and to supporting tools for specification, development and verification of software systems were discussed in detail. Other lectures dealt with the relevance of the foundations of logic for questions of program construction and with new programming paradigms and formalisms which have proven to be useful for a constructive approach to software development. The construction, specification, design and verification especially of distributed and communicating systems was discussed in a number of complementary lectures. Examples for those approaches were given on several levels such as semaphores, nondeterministic state transition systems with fairness assumptions, decomposition of specifications for concurrent systems in liveness and safety properties and functional specifications of distributed systems. Construction methods in programming that were presented range from type theory, the theory of evidence, theorem provers for proving properties of functional programs to category theory as an abstract and general concept for the description of programming paradigms.

Patterns and Skeletons for Parallel and Distributed Computing is a unique survey of research work in high-level parallel and distributed computing over the past ten years. Comprising contributions from the leading researchers in Europe and the US, it looks at interaction patterns and their role in parallel and distributed processing, and demonstrates for the first time the link between skeletons and design patterns. It focuses on computation and communication structures that are beyond simple message-passing or remote procedure calling, and also on pragmatic approaches that lead to practical design and programming methodologies with their associated compilers and tools. The book is divided into two parts which cover: skeletons-related material such as expressing and composing skeletons, formal transformation, cost modelling and languages, compilers and run-time systems for skeleton-based programming.- design patterns and other related concepts, applied to other areas such as real-time, embedded and distributed systems. It will be an essential reference for researchers undertaking new projects in this area, and will also provide useful background reading for advanced undergraduate and postgraduate courses on parallel or distributed system design.
