In Part 2 of this three-part series on dataflow programming with the Task Parallel Library, Eric Vogel shows you how to create a Windows 8 application that uses a composite parallel data flow. In Part ...

Some applications are so inherently complicated that it is difficult to dig through the many layers of connected algorithms to expose the parts of the code ripe for optimization. This makes them a ...

Intel director James Reinders explains the difference between task and data parallelism, and how there is a way around the limits imposed by Amdahl's Law... I'm James Reinders, and I'm going to cover ...

Data parallelism is an approach towards parallel processing that depends on being able to break up data between multiple compute units (which could be cores in a processor, processors in a computer, ...

As hardware designers turn toward multicore processors to improve computing power, software programmers must find new programming strategies that harness the power of parallel computing. One technique ...

In part one of this article, we show how video applications present opportunities for multiple forms of parallelism. We then review the hardware and software approaches for exploiting these ...
