One group at Berkeley calls it the end of the “La-Z-Boy era” of sequential programming. More answers to the question “What comes after the computer chip?” ...
James Reinders is a software programmer with a passion for Parallel Programming and Parallel Computer Architecture.
But, in addition, most existing approaches to producing parallelprograms are very hard, whether they involve automatically convertingexisting sequential programs into parallel ones, or whether ...
Traditional sequential programming uses blocking as the primary mechanism of synchronization and communication among RTOS threads (or between the background loop and interrrupts in the ...
Researchers have discovered a new gene-editing technique that allows for the programming of sequential cuts -- or edits -- over time.
New software introduces programming skills to pre-readers. Is this 21st century literacy? Or too much, too soon?
Sequential programming might better describe the type of programming that governs the most basic of computer programs, while scenario-based systems programming better describes how a smartphone works.
Sequential execution must be specified explicitly since it is now the exception rather than the rule. Parallel programming languages tend to still be in the research side of development.
Dr. Guy Blelloch of Carnegie Mellon University has written an article for the folks at CilkArts analyzing why parallel programming seems to be more difficult than sequential programming. He quickly ...
Programming general purpose multi-core processors is generally regarded as impossible, but XMOS Semiconductor has done it and is applying it in practical applications, according to the CTO of XMOS, ...
