Modern Software Tools for Scientific Computing

Rating:
Summary: An excellent reference to start your research from
Review: This book is a very good reference for those who believe that scientific computing needs a little bit more of software engineering practice. It provides a collection of papers from the major researchers in this area, with interesting examples of real applications. It is not a text book for undergrads, but it provides good pointers to the main subjects, from where the reader can go by him/herself. I have been following HPC research for eight years and OOD for three, and this is for me the best reference in this subject so far.
