Two Google Fellows just published a paper in the latest issue of Communications of the ACM about MapReduce, the parallel programming model used to process more than 20 petabytes of data every day ...

New parallel programming languages are key to the software side of the architectural shift. “Parallel programming languages are, I think, the most important issue in computing today,” said Smith.

Emerging programming models provide a unified approach to the various types of processors and parallelism mechanisms available. A high-level software development platform designed around a suitable ...

Many hands make light work, or so they say. So do many cores, many threads and many data points when addressed by a single computing instruction. Parallel programming – writing code that breaks down ...

Most notably, the chipmaker announced a compiler source code enabling software developers to add new languages and architecture support to Nvidia’s CUDA parallel programming model. The new ...

Parallel programming, and OpenACC, is used in high-performance computing in the fields of bioinformatics, quantum chemistry, astrophysics and more. “The model was made to ensure that scientists spend ...

All parallel programming models need to pass ‘messages’ in some form to communicate information between parallel threads. Sometimes these are actual message sent over the network, other times these ...

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 ...

Developed at BSC, the OmpSs parallel programming model is used on the new UDOO X86 board, which reached its Kickstarter funding target of €100,000 in under seven hours. UDOO X86 combines a powerful ...
