High Performance Computing (HPC) and parallel programming techniques underpin many of today’s most demanding computational tasks, from complex scientific simulations to data-intensive analytics. This ...

Despite its complexity, the software development process has gotten better over the years. “Mature” programmers remember how many things required manual intervention and hand-tuning back in the day.

Writing reliable code or ensuring the reliability of written code can be a daunting task. Programming techniques must be refined and new methodologies developed to produce softwarecode for embedded ...

Let’s think about making programs themselves adapt. This has been called adaptive computing by some. And no, I’m not talking about agile programming or adaptive programming. Thinking adaptively can ...

Reader, let me introduce you to Big Data. Big Data, meet Reader. Actually, there's a bit more to it than that. Big Data systems involve a wide range of technologies that can only be understood when ...

For PLC programming, U.S control engineers and technicians turn typically to ladder logic, a programming technique that’s been around since the birth of programmable logic controllers, or PLCs, in the ...

Heavy modulation of oscillator pitch or filter cutoff can sound a little over-the-top if applied to the entire duration of a sound. Many synths allow a ‘fade in’ to be applied to modulation routings ...
