A study by a University of Warwick researcher has found that the processor in the XBox games console could provide a much cheaper way of performing parallel processing. Dr Simon Scarle, from the ...

As artificial intelligence grows more powerful, so does its appetite for speed and energy. The quest for faster, smarter ...

According to researchers from MIT, code written explicitly to take advantage of parallel computing usually loses the benefit of a compiler’s optimisation strategies. The reason, they say, is because ...

A new study by a University of Warwick researcher shows that using Xboxes are a cheaper alternative to other forms of parallel processing hardware. Dr Simon Scarle, a researcher in the University of ...

A new study by a University of Warwick researcher has demonstrated that researchers trying to model a range of processes could use the power and capabilities of a particular XBox chip as a much ...

Multi-core processors theoretically can run many threads of code in parallel, but some categories of operation currently bog down attempts to raise overall performance by parallelizing computing. Is ...

Researchers at Tohoku University have discovered that there are two parallel processes involved in memory formation when a mouse performs a motor learning task. One process occurs during training and ...

Have you ever studied hard for a test the night before, only to fail miserably the next day? Alternatively, you may have felt ill-prepared after studying the night before when, to your astonishment, ...
