Parallel processing, an integral element of modern computing, allows for more efficiency in a wide range of applications.

After all, the human brain is itself a massively parallel computer; writing programs that can operate in parallel is the key to making computers that seem more like us and less like machines.

The main difference between a parallel processing machine and a typical personal computer is in the number of microprocessors, or chips. A personal computer usually has one microprocessor.

To conduct these simulations using traditional CPU based processing one would normally need to book time on a dedicated parallel processing computer or spend thousands on a parallel network of PCs.

About 20 years ago engineers around the world began demonstrating what is still the greatest computer innovation of my lifetime, parallel processing. (For more on the concept, visit this course at ...

The Massively Parallel Processor represented one of several approaches to the problem of processing data in parallel. Nearly all modern supercomputers use parallel processing, although not all follow ...

To conduct these simulations using traditional CPU based processing one would normally need to book time on a dedicated parallel processing computer or spend thousands on a parallel network of PCs.

Flow Computing is a pioneer in licensing on-die ultra-high-performance parallel computing solutions to CPU vendors of all architectures. And today the company is emerging from stealth with a ...
