In configuring next generation large scale parallel processing arrays some teams are relying on “heterogeneous processing”. Basically a fifty-cent phrase describing a microprocessor with one or more ...

I've been covering various scientific programs the past few months, but sometimes it's hard to find a package that does what you need. In those cases, you need to go ahead and write your own code.

I just received my copy of the newly published Using Advanced MPI: Modern Features of the Message-Passing Interface. Written by William Gropp, Torsten Hoefler, Ewing Lusk, and Rajeev Thakur, the book ...

This course focuses on developing and optimizing applications software on massively parallel graphics processing units (GPUs). Such processing units routinely come with hundreds to thousands of cores ...

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 ...

Intel Parallel Studio XE and Cluster Studio brings parallel computing tools to Linux and Microsoft Visual Studio developers. The compilers support Intel's Parallel Building Blocks and the Fortran ...
