Making use of these codes is a very easy process. That said, note that you’ll need to have already created your own character and played the game for a short while. Let’s get into it: The best place ...

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 ...

While C++ is still one of the most popular programming languages, even the latest versions have very limited features to fully utilize the parallel processing capabilities of current multi- and ...

Memory and threading errors are very hard to find and correct just by looking at the code. Memory leaks, data corruption, illegal accesses, data races, deadlocks, and so on, are rarely detectable this ...

Natick, MA- June 9, 2008 – TotalView Technologies, a provider of interactive analysis and debugging tools for serial and parallel codes, today announced that its TotalView® Debugger is playing a ...

Reinders also discussed two new approaches to parallel code: Ct and Cilk. Cilk is a compiler-centric implementation of a subset of Threaded Building Blocks, making it easier to add parallel code to ...

After a youth spent playing with Amigas and getting into all sorts of trouble on the school computer network, I’ve always had a soft spot in my heart for hardware from the 80s and 90s. This extends ...

I have been frequently asked when the OpenMP and OpenACC directive APIs for parallel programming will merge, or when will one of them (usually OpenMP) will replace the other. I doubt the two APIs will ...

Multi-core processors theoretically can run many threads of code in parallel, but some categories of operation currently bog down attempts to raise overall performance by parallelizing computing. Is ...
