Optimizing HPC Applications with Intel Cluster Tools
Optimizing HPC Applications with Intel Cluster Tools takes the reader on a tour of the fast-growing area of high performance computing and the optimization of hybrid programs. These programs typically combine distributed memory and shared memory programming models and use the Message Passing Interface (MPI) and OpenMP for multi-threading to achieve the ultimate goal of high performance at low power consumption on enterprise-class workstations and compute clusters. The book focuses on optimization for clusters consisting of the Intel Xeon processor, but the optimization methodologies also apply to the Intel Xeon Phi coprocessor and heterogeneous clusters mixing both architectures. Besides the tutorial and reference content, the authors address and refute many myths and misconceptions surrounding the topic. The text is augmented and enriched by descriptions of real-life situations. ...

Oracle Database Transactions and Locking Revealed
Oracle Database Transactions and Locking Revealed provides much-needed information for building scalable, high-concurrency applications and deploy them against the Oracle Database. Read this short, 150-page book that is adapted from Expert Oracle Database Architecture to gain a solid and accurate understanding of how locking and concurrency are dealt with by Oracle Database. Also learn how the Oracle Database architecture accommodates user transactions, and how you can write code to mesh with how Oracle Database is designed to operate. Good transaction design is an important facet of highly-concurrent applications that are run by hundreds, even thousands of users who are all executing transactions at the same time. Transaction design in turn relies upon a good understanding of how the underlying database platform manages of the locking of resources so as to prevent access conflicts and data loss that might otherwise result from concurrent access to data in the database. ...

PhoneGap for Enterprise
This book covers the necessary concepts you'll need to build useful, rich, secure enterprise apps for mobile devices, and also explains portions of an example enterprise app development so that you have a working demonstration of the concepts in the book. The book focuses heavily on security concepts such as authorization, SSL and certificates, source code protection, local data store encryption, and so on, as ensuring a secure channel of communication between the user and the enterprise servers is critical. The book explores the entire app's design, covering the data model and business logic you'll use for your app. It then moves on to cover how to build middle-tier communication between the middle tier and the mobile device, handling application and network events (such as a network going offline), and culminates by showing you how to work with various rich presentation technologies. ...
