    High Performance Platforms Salvatore Orlando High Perfoamnce Computing - S. Orlando 1 Scope of Parallelism: the roadmap towards HPC • Conventional architectures are coarsely comprised of – processor, memory system, I/O • Each of these components presents significant performance bottlenecks. – It is important to understand each of these performance bottlenecks to reduce their effects • Parallelism addresses each of these components in significant ways to improve performance and reduce the bottlenecks • Applications utilize different aspects of parallelism, e.g., – data intensive applications utilize high aggregate memory bandwidth – server applications utilize high aggregate network bandwidth – scientific applications typically utilize high processing and memory system performance High Perfoamnce Computing - S. Orlando 2 Implicit Parallelism: Trends in Microprocessor Architectures • Microprocessor clock speeds have posted impressive gains over the past two decades (two to three orders of magnitude) – there are limits to this increase, also due to power consumption and heat dissipation • Higher levels of device integration have made available a large number of transistors – the issue is how best to transform these large amount of transistors into computational power • Single-core processors use these resources in multiple functional units and execute multiple instructions in the same cycle. • The precise manner in which these instructions are selected and executed provides impressive diversity in architectures. High Perfoamnce Computing - S. Orlando 3 ILP High Perfoamnce Computing - S.

  • Enforcing Abstract Immutability

The decision of the Examining Committee is by majority vote. External Examiner Ana Milanova Associate Professor Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute Supervisor Patrick Lam Associate Professor University of Waterloo Internal Member Lin Tan Associate Professor University of Waterloo Internal Member Werner Dietl Assistant Professor University of Waterloo Internal-external Member Gregor Richards Assistant Professor University of Waterloo ii I hereby declare that I am the sole author of this thesis. This is a true copy of the thesis, including any required final revisions, as accepted by my examiners. I understand that my thesis may be made electronically available to the public. iii Abstract Researchers have recently proposed a number of systems for expressing, verifying, and inferring immutability declarations. These systems are often rigid, and do not support “abstract immutability”. An abstractly immutable object is an object o which is immutable from the point of view of any external methods. The C++ programming language is not rigid—it allows developers to express intent by adding immutability declarations to methods. Abstract immutability allows for performance improvements such as caching, even in the presence of writes to object fields. This dissertation presents a system to enforce abstract immutability. First, we explore abstract immutability in real-world systems. We found that developers often incorrectly use abstract immutability, perhaps because no programming language helps developers correctly implement abstract immutability.

Any opinions, findings and conclusions or recommendations expressed in this material are those of the authors and do not necessarily reflect those of any of the sponsors. Keywords: Programming language design, Programming language usability, Immutability, Mutability, Program- mer productivity, Empirical studies of programmers Abstract Programming languages can restrict state change by preventing it entirely (immutability) or by restricting which clients may modify state (read-only restrictions). The benefits of immutability and read-only restrictions in software structures have been long-argued by practicing software engineers, researchers, and programming language designers. However, there are many proposals for language mechanisms for restricting state change, with a remarkable diversity of tech- niques and goals, and there is little empirical data regarding what practicing software engineers want in their tools and what would benefit them. We systematized the large collection of techniques used by programming languages to help programmers prevent undesired changes in state.

  • Functional Programming Patterns in Scala and Clojure Write Lean Programs for the JVM
    Early Praise for Functional Programming Patterns This book is an absolute gem and should be required reading for anybody looking to transition from OO to FP. It is an extremely well-built safety rope for those crossing the bridge between two very different worlds. Consider this mandatory reading. ➤ Colin Yates, technical team leader at QFI Consulting, LLP This book sticks to the meat and potatoes of what functional programming can do for the object-oriented JVM programmer. The functional patterns are sectioned in the back of the book separate from the functional replacements of the object-oriented patterns, making the book handy reference material. As a Scala programmer, I even picked up some new tricks along the read. ➤ Justin James, developer with Full Stack Apps This book is good for those who have dabbled a bit in Clojure or Scala but are not really comfortable with it; the ideal audience is seasoned OO programmers looking to adopt a functional style, as it gives those programmers a guide for transitioning away from the patterns they are comfortable with. ➤ Rod Hilton, Java developer and PhD candidate at the University of Colorado Functional Programming Patterns in Scala and Clojure Write Lean Programs for the JVM Michael Bevilacqua-Linn The Pragmatic Bookshelf Dallas, Texas • Raleigh, North Carolina Many of the designations used by manufacturers and sellers to distinguish their products are claimed as trademarks. Where those designations appear in this book, and The Pragmatic Programmers, LLC was aware of a trademark claim, the designations have been printed in initial capital letters or in all capitals.
