Just in time for the launch of Intel's QX6700 Quad Core processor, Valve Software held their third Hardware Editor's Day in beautiful Bellevue, Washington USA. The subject of Multi-Core processing was ...
With silicon clock scaling largely dead thanks to the laws of physics, computer scientists and chip designers have had to search for performance improvements in other areas -- typically by improving ...
Since 2005, computer CPU chip makers have increasingly adopted the use of multiple cores to increase performance. Each core runs a separate computing task, so the computer gets more work done. Before ...
Abstract: We propose an asymmetric multi-processor reconflgurable SoC architecture comprised of a master CPU running embedded Linux and loosely-coupled slave CPUs executing dedicated software ...
RapidMind Multi-core Development Platform 3.0 helps developers fully leverage the processing power of multi-core x86 chips RapidMind is announcing on Monday software intended to help developers ...
I have read on various forums that mixing memory modules of different brands can lead to stability issues even though the timings and voltages are the same. If I understand it correctly, each CPU ...
The CPU is able to use a 32 byte memory for instructions and data, and a 32 byte stack for data instead of a register file. The instructions are 8-bit ones. The 3 most significant bits are the opcode ...
Harnessing the power of modern multi-GPU architectures, we present a massively parallel simulation system based on the Material Point Method (MPM) for simulating physical behaviors of materials ...
Marketing a CPU or any advanced processor not named Nvidia is getting much harder. Once upon a time there were two companies making data center CPUs, and marketing was simply "Ours is better than ...
