Whether modifying an existing application or writing entirely new code, parallel applications can be much more challenging to work with than their sequential counterparts. Without a doubt, the ...

The efficient implementation of pure declarative languages is alsovery difficult (curiously, the implementation problem is the dual ofthe automatic parallelization problem, an observation that we ...

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), sequential ...

Redmond, Wash. — Multicore processors are driving a historic shift to a new parallel architecture for mainstream computers. But a parallel programming model to serve those machines will not emerge for ...

HAVE computers stopped getting faster? If you looked only at the clock speeds of microprocessor chips, you might well think so. A modern PC typically has a processor running at 3.0GHz (3 billion clock ...

Multicore chip designs, large symmetrical multiprocessing (SMP) systems, and clustering can bring many processors to bear on an application. But without proper software, they're simply large ...

A new evaluation of popular parallel programming languages finds that the C++ library provides the best combination of usability and performance Multicore programming is a tricky problem. Developers ...

OpenCL, created to support parallel programming in Apple's Snow Leopard operating system, may become the new world standard for parallel programming on all platforms. Peter N. Glaskowsky is a computer ...

Do we really need another programming language? There is certainly no shortage of choices already. Between imperative languages, functional languages, object-oriented languages, dynamic languages, ...

In this slidecast, Todd Wilde from Mellanox presents: Scalable HPC New Accelerations for Parallel Programming Languages over InfiniBand. This presentation will explore new advancements Mellanox has ...

You want to build a website or web app. So, what are the best web programming languages available, and why are they the best? It's a weighty question, and I'd like to emphasize -- strongly and upfront ...
