Task parallelism is perhaps the most general approach to parallel processing. In task parallel programs, different operations (i.e., tasks) are performed simultaneously; sometimes the tasks operate on ...

For more on this topic see Using pipelining in multicore LabView and Using data parallelism in multicore LabView. Until recently, advances in computing hardware have provided significant increases in ...

One of the things to avoid when it comes to parallelism is working with raw threads. Abstraction offers a way around the issue, by avoiding the need to deal with low-level details of parallel systems, ...

As hardware designers turn toward multicore processors to improve computing power, software programmers must find new programming strategies that harness the power of parallel computing. One technique ...
