Parallel architectures are the way of the future, but are notoriously difficult to program. In addition to the low-level constructs they often present (e.g., locks, DMA, and non-...
Multicore processors are an architectural paradigm shift that promises a dramatic increase in performance. But, they also bring an unprecedented level of complexity in algorithmic ...
