High Performance Computing (HPC) and parallel programming techniques underpin many of today’s most demanding computational tasks, from complex scientific simulations to data-intensive analytics. This ...

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

James Reinders, Intel's head of software development products, sets out some of the company's plans for encouraging more developers to switch to parallel programming. With many programmers barely ...

A hands-on introduction to parallel programming and optimizations for 1000+ core GPU processors, their architecture, the CUDA programming model, and performance analysis. Students implement various ...

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 ...

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 ...

Whether modifying an existing application or writing entirely new code, parallel applications can be much more challenging to work with than their sequential counterparts. Without a doubt, the ...

SAN JOSE, Calif. — The MathWorks is rolling out a new release of its MatLab environment that includes new parallel programming capabilities. Release 2008b available Monday (Oct. 20) lets users ...

According to several recent market studies, roughly 750 million cellular handsets were shipped in 2006. This quantity is likely to increase to more than one billion handsets by 2011. These numbers are ...
