Both parallel programming and asynchronous programming are examples of concurrent programming, meaning more than one operation is running at the same time. Parallel programming is a more specific form ...

Foundations of parallel programming I Intel's James Reinders looks into the algorithms that form the heart of threading building blocks - a C++ template library for parallel programming.

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 ...

Parallel programming exploits the capabilities of multicore systems by dividing computational tasks into concurrently executed subtasks. This approach is fundamental to maximising performance and ...

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 ...

For those of you who are dyslexic, Cilk is not to be confused with SYCL, which is a cross-platform, parallel abstraction layer for C++ that rides on OpenCL; it was created in 2014 and that is ...

Intel's James Reinders presents some recurring themes for developers looking to improve their game when it comes to programming parallel systems Written by James Reinders, ContributorSept. 10 ...

Reinders said. He added that he believes parallel programming may lead to new companies attacking problems with new approaches to compete with existing businesses. Exploiting Parallelism ...

In this vein, a new architectural pattern for parallel programming has been introduced (pdf) by Prof. Jorge L. Ortega-Arjona from the Mathematics Department of the National Autonomous University ...
