Sommario/riassunto |
|
The Stracheys were an exceptionally intelligent and unusual family. Prominent in imperial administration, science, and feminism in the nineteenth century, and in the suffrage movement, women's education, and the bringing of new approaches to sexuality in the twentieth century, they had a wide and significant influence. Examining Lytton Strachey, his parents and nine siblings, Barbara Caine provides a fascinating picture of a diverse and complex family in a period of change from. Victorian England to the beat generation. - ;The Stracheys were an exceptionally intelligent and unusual family, pro |

Sommario/riassunto |
|
In the last decade, parallel computing technologies have transformed high-performance computing. Two trends have emerged: massively parallel computing leading to exascale on the one hand and moderately parallel applications, which have opened up high-performance computing for the masses, on the other. The availability of commodity hardware components, a wide spectrum of parallel applications in research and industry and user-friendly management and development tools have enabled access to parallel and high-performance computing for a wide spectrum of end users from research and academia to mid |
