✦ Synopsis

This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-proceedings of the 14th International Workshop on Languages and Compilers for Parallel Computing, LCPC 2001, held in Lexington, KY, USA, in August 1-3, 2001.

The 28 revised full papers presented were carefully selected during two rounds of reviewing and improvement. All current issues in parallel processing are addressed, in particular compiler optimization, HP Java programming, power-aware parallel architectures, high performance applications, power management of mobile computers, data distribution, shared memory systems, load balancing, garbage collection, parallel components, job scheduling, dynamic parallelization, cache optimization, specification, and dataflow analysis.
