Reference Book
There will be no set text book for COMP3320/6464 in 2012, but we will
draw on material from a variety of sources. I will discuss this in
more detail in the first lecture. For the moment here is a list of
reference books. Expect this list to grow as the course progresses.
-
The Software Optimization Cookbook: High-Performance Recipes
for IA-32 Platforms, Richard Gerber, Aart J.C. Bik, Kevin
B. Smith and Xinmin Tian, Intel Press, 2006 (2nd Edn). ISBN
0-9764832-1-1. (The topics in this book are all valuable, although the
content is a bit Intel centric. It is also becoming a bit dated, and
does not contain GPU related material.)

Charles Severance. O"Reilly & Associates Inc. 1998 (2nd Edn). ISBN

short loan section of the library).
