Could you recommend books for efficient Fortran90 programming?

I have been looking for book to improve the speed of my Fortran90
program, but I don't know whether appropriate book is available.

Most compilers include sections in their documentation which give advice about this. An interesting question is which practices can be expected to be useful across a range of the better compilers, and whether a range of hardware architectures is to be addressed. This is a moving target, as the quality of optimizations in those compilers improves, and usage of current syntax in important benchmarks increases.
