The advent of homogeneous, shared memory multicore platforms is seen as both a threat and an opportunity for the software industry. Many commentators are concerned that efficiently and correctly ...

Programming for multicore tech­nology is again not just a fantastic leap in programming, but a leap in conceiving and understanding programs.

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

To fully utilize multicore processors or systems-on-chip (SoCs), a programmer must develop software that splits a program into tasks that can be executed concurrently on different processor cores. The ...

The Multicore Programming Practices guide details a concise set of best practices in software development for multicore processors using existing technology and existing software.

Our program will provide a solid foundation in the fundamentals of multicore programming, offer hands-on experience with the use of multicore languages and libraries, and introduce emerging research ...

In "Waking Up Multi-Core Processors," I explained how programming toolkits can make parallel programming easier for certain classes of applications.

The Multicore Association is establishing specifications for a programming model that will reduce the complexity involved in writing software for multicore chips used in smartphones, tablets, and ...
