In case you don’t read the sidebar (you really should, you know), I’ve written a review of Calvin Lin and Larry Snyder’s relatively new book, “Principles of Parallel Programming” (we’ve never met, but ...

Parallel programming exploits the capabilities of multicore systems by dividing computational tasks into concurrently executed subtasks. This approach is fundamental to maximising performance and ...

The Swiss National Supercomputer Center (CSCS) will host a three day summer school on parallel programming aimed at graduate students who are new to the world of HPC August 17-19, 2011 in Manno. The ...

Programming languages are evolving to bring the software closer to hardware. As hardware architectures become more parallel (with the advent of multicore processors and FPGAs, for example), sequential ...

As modern .NET applications grow increasingly reliant on concurrency to deliver responsive, scalable experiences, mastering asynchronous and parallel programming has become essential for every serious ...

PARALLEL DEBUGGING Debugging needs to be addressed regardless of the parallel programming approach. Existing debuggers are simply the starting point, because most don’t address many of the features ...

HAVE computers stopped getting faster? If you looked only at the clock speeds of microprocessor chips, you might well think so. A modern PC typically has a processor running at 3.0GHz (3 billion clock ...

Researchers at MIT claim their modifications to the LLVM compiler framework can help more kinds of code take advantage of parallel processing, with little or no developer effort If you want to go fast ...

eSpeaks’ Corey Noles talks with Rob Israch, President of Tipalti, about what it means to lead with Global-First Finance and how companies can build scalable, compliant operations in an increasingly ...
