I did that search and right the top was this link, which looks like homebase
for the original material:

Very cool, thanks RGB for what looks like toothsome book.
I went ahead and bought a paper copy, but it is nice to be able to
access the material from a workstation because I don't carry the copy
around with me all the time...;-)

Hi.
Could you please recommend a paper for reading? I'd like to know about
parallel
sorting algorithms for this architecture.
You might check out Ian Foster's free online book on parallel
algorithms. It is worth buying if you're going to be doing a lot of
parallel programming. Or there are two or three other decent textbooks
on parallel programming at the algorithm level. I don't recall offhand
if Foster covers sorting, but you can easily found out for free.
Remember, GIYF here -- just enter search strings like "Foster Parallel
Programming" to find his book, "Parallel Sorting Algorithms" or the like
too see if there is anything out there on the web.
