"Thoroughly revised, updated, and expanded by more than one third, this new edition of Golub and Van Loan's landmark book in scientific computing provides the vital mathematical background and algorithmic skills required for the production of numerical software. New chapters on high performance computing use matrix multiplication to show how to organize a calculation for vector processors as well as for computers with shared or distributed memories. A.so new are discussions of parallel vector methods for linear equations, least squares, and eigenvalue problems."--Back cover.
