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 ...

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 ...

The laboratory is shrinking. Scientists and engineers are borrowing miniaturization, integration, and parallel-processing techniques from the computer industry to develop laboratory devices and ...

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 ...

In the early 1980s, when I was teaching and doing research at Yale’s computer science department and School of Management, my colleagues and I dreamed about the great promises of artificial ...

The SIAM Conference on Parallel Processing for Scientific Computing (SIAM PP22) is sponsored by the SIAM Activity Group on Supercomputing. The SIAM International Meshing Roundtable Workshop 2022 (SIAM ...

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 ...

Multicore processors have been around for many years, and today, they can be found in most devices. However, many developers are doing what they've always done: creating single-threaded programs. They ...
