Model for Massively Parallel Computation — MapReduce Theory
Grigory Yaroslavtsev's theoretical treatment of MapReduce as a model for massively parallel computation — covering the MRC complexity class and what it tells us about which problems can be solved efficiently at scale.
Modern GPU
Sean Baxter's moderngpu library — a CUDA toolkit providing high-level primitives (sort, reduce, scan, join) for GPU programming. Published by NVIDIA Research, it demonstrated that expressive, composable GPU programming was achievable without sacrificing raw throughput.
