Microsoft has purchased assets in a company that specializes in parallel computing, a function used mainly in supercomputing that Microsoft aims to develop for a broader audience, the company said ...

Many attempts have been made over the last 46 years to rewrite Amdahl’s law, a theory that focuses on performance relative to parallel and serial computing. One scientist hopes to prove that Amdahl’s ...

When it comes to computation, the modern approach seems to involve an enormous bucket of bits, vigorous shaking, and not a lot of explanation of how it all works. If you ever wondered how Excel became ...

In the world of High Performance Computing (HPC), Beowulf clustering stands in a class of its own. Beowulf is an approach to building a supercomputer by means of clustering commodity off-the-shelf ...

In this video from the EuroMPI’19, Mathieu Luisier presents: Massively Parallel Computer Aided Design of Nano-Transistors: When Physics Lets You Down. Moore’s scaling law is slowly coming to an end ...

Recently, I had the good fortune to present a class at the ACM Conference for Computer Science Educators (SIGCSE). While I definitely shared my enthusiasm for parallel programming, I had two key goals ...
