Back in 1965, Intel cofounder Gordon Moore predicted that the semiconductor industry could double the number of transistors on a chip every 12 months (he later amended it to 24 months) for about the ...

Instruction Level Parallelism means executing multiple instructions or pieces of instructions at the same time to make the computer run faster. Computers have hit the parallelism wall. This paper will ...

Introduction to parallel computing for scientists and engineers. Shared memory parallel architectures and programming, distributed memory, message-passing data-parallel architectures, and programming.

Parallel computing is an idea whose time has finally come, but not for the obvious reasons. Parallelism is a computer science concept that is older Moore’s Law. In fact, it first appeared in print in ...
