    design patterns on parallel programming

    Hi Communitie!

    I invite you to discuss about all design patterns that are involved on parallel programming!

    For example: Singleton pattern

    Do you know another?
    Do you know a architecture pattern about parallel programming?
    Would you like propuse one?( architecture, design or programming pattern )

    I wait for your posts!

    In this link: http://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/visiting-proxy-design-pattern/

    Talk about proxy pattern but don't use it on parallel programming.

    Do you know another articles on Intel Software network about design pattern on parallel programming?

    Hi Jose,

    There is a very interesting book: "Patterns for Paralllel Programming" covering many design patterns on parallel programming, by Timothy G. Mattson, Beverly A. Sanders and Berna L. Massingill.

    Besides, you can find many interesting algorithms covered in Dr. Clay Breshears' "The Art of Concurrency: A Thread Monkey's Guide to Writing Parallel Applications". A must read.

    As another example, in my book "C# 2008 and 2005 Threaded Programming: Beginner's Guide", focused on C# parallel programming for beginners and talking about selected threading topics (not a full reference guide), I've used the factory method class creational pattern to create classes prepared for inheritance and hence simplifying the creation of parallelized code. Besides, another useful pattern whilst working in C# and C# 3.0 threading model is the observer object behavioral design pattern, also known as dependents and publish-subscribe. That's from my experience.

    However, now that C# 4.0, .Net 4.0 and Visual Studio 2010 is in Beta 1, the new light-weight threading model allows to use many other patterns that were very difficult to use in previoous C# and .Net versions.

    Cheers,

    Gaston

    Thanks for your help Gaston!
    =D

    Two more questions ( please! )

    (1) Do you know another references about "design pattern on parallel programming" on the web?

    (2) About your response " the new light-weight threading model allows to use many other patterns that were very difficult to use in previoous C# and .Net versions"

    Could you give us ( me and people that read this posts ) links or books references about this subject? Please, it's very important for the new version of MsVS2010

    Best regards!

    Re: design patterns on parallel programming

    This night I found a mexican that work on "architectural  patterns for parallel programming". I'm reading some articles and I thinks that is very interesting.

    Link: http://www.cs.ucl.ac.uk/staff/J.Ortega-Arjona/research_eng.html

    I hope this link will be useful for everyone!

    Hi Jose,

    (1)
    I don't know another references on the web.

    (2)
    I've explained how to create producer-consumer patterns using the new concurrent collections in my aforementioned book. With VS2010 and .NET 4.0, it will be easier to use the concurrent collections to work with pipelines and producers-consumers. You won't have to worry about locks as they are lock-free concurrent collections.

    I'll be working on books and on posts about these topics. I'm waiting for VS 2010 Beta 2. :)

    Best regards,

    Gaston

    Hi Jose,

    Thanks for the link. Very interesting information.

    Just a small issue: Most parallel patterns are designed to take advantage of old parallel architectures. With new NUMA hardware, some patterns have to be redesigned taking into account the new constraints and benefits.

    However, this is something new and there's a lot of people working on new ideas for the new architectures. I'm one of them. I'll be posting my ideas on ISN.

    Feel free to contact me. I'm very interested on patterns for parallel programming.

    Best regards,

    Gaston

    Hi Jose (and everyone),

    Another interesting source on work towards parallel design patterns is being done at the ParLab at the University of California Berkeley.  The Lab under the leadership of  Kurt Keutzer & Dave Patterson is funded by Intel and Microsoft. 

    Lab URL - http://parlab.eecs.berkeley.edu/

    Hi Gaston!

    About NUMA, these are links for introduction of this technology:

    [1] David E. Ott. Optimizing Software Applications for NUMA.  DDJ Magazine.
    http://www.ddj.com/go-parallel/article/showArticle.jhtml?articleID=218401502

    [2] Jie Tao, Martin Schulz, Wolfgang karl.SIMT/OMP : A toolset to study and exploit memory locality for OpenMP Applications on NUMA Architectures.Springer Verlag.
    http://books.google.com.mx/books?id=5ZlVI1bHMMgC&pg=PA41&lpg=PA41&dq=%2Bnuma+%2B%22parallel+programming%22&source=bl&ots=BGtcwHgV8c&sig=kbyGaGWmw2nO6m85QAAetLsyP7c&hl=es&ei=ZE_NSuqpBtSY8AbUhuGEBA&sa=X&oi=book_result&ct=result&resnum=1#v=onepage&q=%2Bnuma%20%2B%22parallel%20programming%22&f=false

    I'll check if the last references ( mexican investigator ) don't used NUMA.

    Best regards.
