Last night I updated the Javascript VNC client called noVNC that you can use along with Meshcentral.com, and now, it supports Intel AMT hardware KVM! So, if you happen to have a computer that has Intel AMT 6.0 of higher that is properly configured with hardware KVM and setup on Meshcentral.com, you can perform Hardware [...]

Meshcentral.com - 404 Error!

And now for something completely weird. I saw a recent TED video on the opportunities of a 404 error page. Apparently there are even competitions for the best 404 error page. Given that I am working on my own web site, I figured I needed to get a better page not found. So here we [...]

Over the weekend I improved the full screen support for the built-in Meshcentral.com remote desktop feature in two ways. Before I get to that, for people who don't know, Meshcentral.com allows you to take control of your remote desktop from within a web browser. So, from anywhere in the world you log in and with [...]

This is an translation of a very popular Chinese Blog wrote by iamsheldon on Chinese Intel Software Network. For beginning Android game developers, it is very common that they get lost frequently and do not know where to start and get their hands wet. Especially when they get problems that they can not resolve by themself, [...]

One of the big features of Meshcentral.com is it's remote file manager. Being able to manage, upload and download files using any web browser is pretty powerful. Today, we improved this feature a lot by adding drag & drop support. You can now take one or more files from a folder on your local computer [...]

Deterministic Reduction: a new Community Preview Feature in Intel® Threading Building Blocks
By Alexei Katranov (Intel) (1 posts) on May 11, 2012 at 2:22 am

Computer Arithmetic has a lot of peculiarities [1]. One of these pitfalls is associativity failure in floating point arithmetic. For example, the two sums of fractions calculations below will not produce the same result when using floats: In a sequential program, it is not a big problem since the calculation order is exactly specified so [...]

In my last blog I talked about adding iPad Retina display to Meshcentral.com. Well, I made two more improvements on that same topic. First, the new high DPI support now includes Internet Explorer. If you set the zoom factor on IE to 150% or more and go to Meshcentral.com, you will see the high resolution [...]

Digital Logic Simulation with the Intel® TBB Flow Graph, Part 3: Putting together a simulation
By Terry Wilmarth (Intel) (10 posts) on May 5, 2012 at 9:00 am
Comments (0)
In Part 2 of this blog, I described a four-bit adder circuit built from components discussed in Part 1. In this last installment, I’ll continue using Intel®TBB’s flow graph to put together some signal input and output devices, and then use those to make a small simulation featuring the four-bit adder from Part 2. Let’s [...]

Digital Logic Simulation with the Intel® TBB Flow Graph, Part 2: Building bigger components

In Part 1, I described how to put together a basic logic gate using the Intel® Threading Building Blocks flow graph nodes or_node and multifunction_node. In this blog, I will assume the basic logic gates and_gate, or_gate and xor_gate exist, and use them to construct a four-bit adder. To begin with, I’ll first construct a [...]

In this multi-part blog, I’m going to show you how to put together a simple logic simulation program using the Intel® Threading Building Blocks flow graph feature. Please note that this example does NOT demonstrate a practical approach to digital logic simulation. The purpose of the example is to demonstrate the use of several types [...]

In the last week, I got myself a "new iPad" with retina display. It's really a wonderful display and moving forward, there probably will be a lot more high DPI displays available for tablets and laptops. When visiting web sites, the fonts and CSS elements of the web page look sharp, but the images are [...]

Intel® Threading Building Blocks (Intel® TBB) 4.0 Update 4 introduces a new Community Preview feature, the aggregator. An internal version of the aggregator has been in use in Intel® TBB for some time, appearing in the flow graph and concurrent priority queue implementations. An aggregator is like a mutex in that it enforces mutually exclusive [...]

Cross-posted from my blog on the Yocto Project site. Please go there for lots of great embedded Linux information. Here in Hillsboro, Oregon, we have an open office area, and I really wanted a monitor set up which would display the status of our Yocto Project autobuilder for all to see. Since I have a [...]
