Modern computing has many foundational building blocks, including central processing units (CPUs), graphics processing units (GPUs) and data processing units (DPUs). However, what almost all modern ...

Existing processors in PCs, smartphones and other devices can be supercharged for enormous power and efficiency gains using a new parallel processing software framework designed to eliminate ...

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 ...

About 20 years ago engineers around the world began demonstrating what is still the greatest computer innovation of my lifetime, parallel processing. (For more on the concept, visit this course at the ...

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 ...

Here’s something fun. Our hacker [Willow Cunningham] has sent us a copy of their homework. This is their final project for the “ECE 574: Cluster Computing” course at the University of Maine, Orono. It ...
