This book provides a introduction to the fundamental principles and practice of parallel processing. After a general introduction to the many facets of parallelism, the first part of the book is devoted to the development of a coherent theoretical framework. Particular attention is paid to the modeling, semantics and complexity of interacting parallel processes. The second part of the book considers the more practical aspects such as parallel processor architecture, parallel and distributed programming, and concurrent transaction handling in databases.
