Description
Mastering parallel and concurrent programming in Haskell with this comprehensive guide. Learn how to harness the power of multicore processors and threads to speed up computation-heavy programs.
This hands-on book provides practical examples and exercises to help you develop your skills, covering topics such as parallelism with the Eval monad, concurrency with the Par monad, and building high-speed concurrent network servers.
With this book, you'll be able to build distributed programs that run on multiple machines in a network, and explore how to use libraries like Repa and Accelerate to accelerate computations directly on the GPU.
