Parallel patterns have emerged from recent research on parallel programming as powerful, high-level abstractions that can elegantly capture data locality, memory access patterns, and parallelism ...

In a lot of our programs, we run only one additional thing at a time and wait for it to complete; this is usually referred to with the more generic term "asynchronous programming." Parallel ...

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

Consequently, parallel programming is about to become a way of life in our business and Mattson wants us to be ready. “Write your software for 100 processor cores,” says Mattson, “and then run it on ...

These can be code constructs at the level of programming language idioms or even at the level of design patterns for parallel programming. Once we've identified these constructs, we may elaborate ...
