Few technologies have a more interesting history than parallel computing, in which multiple processors in a single system combine to tackle a problem. A chronicle of events in parallel computing says ...

Intel director James Reinders explains the difference between task and data parallelism, and how there is a way around the limits imposed by Amdahl's Law... I'm James Reinders, and I'm going to cover ...

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 ...

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 ...

I love being a copy editor because I like thinking about grammar, to catch other people’s errors and having an excuse to get Urbann Turbann regularly after a shift. Wait. There’s something wrong with ...

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 ...

This sponsored post from Intel highlights how today’s enterprises can achieve high levels of parallelism in large scale Python applications using the Intel Distribution for Python with Numba. The ...
