Chapman Barbara, Jost Gabriele, van der Pas Ruud. Using OpenMP: Portable Shared Memory Parallel Programming

The MIT Press, 2008. — 384 p. — ISBN13: 978-0-262-53302-7.Compaq, Digital, Intel, IBM and Silicon Graphics have agreed to support OpenMP, a new standard developed by Silicon Graphics and Kuck & Associates to allow programmers to write a single version
of their software that will run on parallel processor computers using Unix or Windows NT operating systems. The new standard will hasten the trend in which scientists and engineers choose high-end
workstations rather than supercomputers for complex computational applications. (NYT 28 Oct. 1997)
