* New approaches to parallel computing are being developed that make better use of the heterogeneous cluster architecture
* Provides a detailed introduction to parallel computing on heterogenous clusters
* All concepts and algorithms are illustrated with working programs that can be compiled and executed on any cluster
* The algorithms discussed have practical applications in a range of real-life parallel computing problems, such as the N-body problem, portfolio management, and the modeling of oil extraction

Heterogeneous Agent Systems
$80.00
This book provides an excellent overview of how to architect and create intelligent software agents that operate over the web. Case studies are covered in some depth and include STORE, a personalized department store application, CFIT, an application to prevent Controlled Flight into Terrain, and CHAIN, a supply chain example application. The examples in the book are not strictly academic toys. I invented a financial agent system in 1999 that was subsequently purchased by America On-Line. The structure of agent interactions of that commercially implemented system is exactly as shown in figure 1.1 of the book. The only thing that has changed since that system was built, and since this book was published, is the rise of Web Services. The book details an implementation architecture called IMPACT for deploying agents. I think we would find that Web Services would be the appropriate implementation technology today.
