Attending my first Intel Developer's Forum, I got a chance to attend a session called the "Intel Faces of Parallelism Lab," which featured Cilk+ (convenient threads added to C++), TBB, and the current beta version of Array Building Blocks (ArBB). ArBB is a C++ library geared towards data parallelism in the same sense that TBB is geared toward task parallelism, with reusable features that take care of scalable parallelism without having to program all the details yourself.
IDF 2011
Graceful Enhancement
Matt Wolf and I were walking from our hotel to IDF 2011 this morning and we were talking about various architectures and what we each preferred. Matt described his perception and I said that sounds like graceful enhancement and he said that was a great name for it. It was a great mutually derived word that may be more a candidate for general usage than Colbert's truthiness.
IDF 2011, как зеркало идеальной революции
Третий день читаю реляции с Intel Developer Forum в Сан-Франциско и только сейчас, кажется, смог подобрать правильные слова, характеризующие происходящее. Intel совершила самую настоящую революцию на рынке аппаратных платформ для мобильных устройств. И параллельно сделала все возможное, чтобы этой революции никто из покупателей не заметил.
Is parallelism a choke point for the advancement of computing? Education is key.
In a recent lead article in Computerworld, a warning was sounded that lack of Parallel programming skills among developers would be "one of the biggest questions for computing over the next decade."
