which can be visualized as shown in Figure1.1 above. A's row i and B's column j are called vectors -one-dimensional grids of numbers. The inner-product computation can beexpressed as: which can be ...

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 ...

イリノイ大学でIMPACTプロジェクトを主導するWen-Mei Hwu氏によると、シーケンシャル処理用に書かれた古いプログラムからコンパイラで自動的に並列(パラレル)性を引き出そうという努力は、ほとんどがうまくいかないという。また、GPGPUのCUDAのようなレベルで ...

The authors of my Editor’s Top Picks for this week – Atego’s Kelvin Nilsen and Adacore’s S. Tucker Taft – believe that despite all the tools that allow embedded systems developers to maintain ...

Abstract: This Innovative Practice Full Paper presents BlocklyPar, a set of three tutorial games to move from sequential to parallel programming using a block-based visual language. Block-based ...

Programming general purpose multi-core processors is generally regarded as impossible, but XMOS Semiconductor has done it and is applying it in practical applications, according to the CTO of XMOS, ...

Dr. Guy Blelloch of Carnegie Mellon University has written an article for the folks at CilkArts analyzing why parallel programming seems to be more difficult than sequential programming. He quickly ...

Researchers have discovered a new gene-editing technique that allows for the programming of sequential cuts -- or edits -- over time. Researchers from the University of Illinois Chicago have ...
