The 14th ACM SIGPLAN Symposium on Principles and Practice of Parallel Programming (PPoPP 2009) and the 15th International Symposium on High-Performance Computer Architecture (HPCA-15) opened Monday in ...
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 ...
The authors of my Editor’s Top Picks for this week – Atego’s Kelvin Nilsen and Adacore’s S. Tucker Taft – believe that despite all the tools that allow embedded systems developers to maintain ...
Writing correct concurrent programs is harder than writing sequential ones. This is because the set of potential risks and failure modes is larger - anything that can go wrong in a sequential program ...
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 ...
Researchers have discovered a new gene-editing technique that allows for the programming of sequential cuts -- or edits -- over time. Researchers from the University of Illinois Chicago have ...
