I’m James Reinders and as I've travelled around talking to programmers about parallel programming I’ve come up with a set of rules of thumb; recurring themes about what makes programmers more ...

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 ...

I just finished reading the new book by David Kirk and Wen-mei Hwu called Programming Massively Parallel Processors. The generic title notwithstanding, readers should not come to this book expecting ...

Write program to run in parallel? Yes. Did you remember to use a Scalable Memory Allocator? No? Then read on … In my experience, making sure “memory allocation” for a program is ready for parallelism ...

Computer science is approaching a crisis that some CS experts say could fuel a renaissance of ideas. Very soon, mainstream computers will need an easy-to-use parallel programming model to tap into ...

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 ...
