In this article, which is Part I of a two-part series, we'll explain the key technology differentiators among the latest massively parallel chips. (See our earlier article for a discussion of ...

For example, an engineer may develop a real-time embedded control system at the same time as its human-machine interface. Maybe the system also has a computation-intensive task such as high-speed ...

Micron’s Automata Processor (AP) uses a unique parallel processing technique that exploits the company’s memory technology (Fig. 1). The parallel processor is similar to an FPGA and a content ...

The Pilot single-axis motion processor family is now available in a parallel interface version. Communicating with the host processor via a bi-directional, 16-bit parallel data port, the new Parallel ...

Scientists developed a new architecture and approach, which combines data storage and processing onto a single chip using "photonic" or light-based processors that deals out information much faster ...

You can't swing a dead cat six inches these days without hitting a a new Kickstarter project. When it works, Kickstarter is a great way to tie niche ideas or new concepts directly to people interested ...

Oracle's data centers use a proprietary random direct memory access (RDMA) networking technology that moves data between ...

Parallel processing is an idea that will be familiar to most readers. Few of you will not be reading this on a device with only one processor core, and quite a few of you will have experimented with ...

Designing the software architecture and choosing algorithms Implementing the software in a high-level language or assembly code (or often, a mixture of both, and possibly incorporating off-the-shelf ...
