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 ...

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 MIT claim their modifications to the LLVM compiler framework can help more kinds of code take advantage of parallel processing, with little or no developer effort If you want to go fast ...

For nearly 10 years, computer processors have been getting faster by using multiple cores rather than raising their individual speeds. This measure makes our PCs and smartphones more power-efficient, ...

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 ...

Parallel processing is an idea that will be familiar to most readers. Few of you will not be reading this on a device with only one processor core, and quite a few of you will have experimented with ...
