So multi-threaded applications are built with complex co-ordination parameters, meaning that, when bugs develop, they cause greater impact, are harder to find and harder to fix?

Furthermore, multi-threaded applications usually are written with a specific number of cores in mind at design time, and most of the time this cannot be changed without recompiling.

For a long time now, researchers have been working on automating the process of breaking up otherwise single-threaded code to run on multiple processors by way of multiple threads. Results, although ...

The use of multi-core hardware is resulting in development of multi-threaded applications susceptible to race condition defects, said Coverity.

AMD has open sourced more than 3,000 routines in its AMD Performance Library for multi-threaded programming. These routines, which will make it easier to build media and other applications for ...

To demonstrate how powerful this new multi-threaded programming API was, Intel had several demos of compiled Ct code running complex and CPU-intensive applications running on 4 to 8 CPU cores.

As a result, they are the only tools in the industry that can detect concurrency errors, like data races and deadlocks, in complex multi-threaded software applications at runtime and in the ...
