This is a complete guide for learning how to "think parallel". The treatment emphasizes general principles, but sprinkled throughout are also numerous "parallel hints" and "Fortran 90 tips". The Fortran 90 language is not just the long-awaited updating of Fortran to modern computing practices--it is the cutting edge of the multiprocessor computers and widespread parallel programming.
