Parallel Programming Talk - OpenCL with Tim Mattson

Clay and I talked with Dr. Tim Mattson about OpenCL on the Tuesday January 20th show. Tim is Intel’s go to guy for building solutions and standards for parallel architcture. He is an author, teacher and constant learner.

Parallel Programming Talk – Intel Smoke Tech Demo with Orion Granatir

Welcome back Clay Breshears! After taking the last few months off to relax and work on a book Clay is back and talking parallel programming again. Thank you to Michael Wrinn who filled in and shared his parallel programming expertise during Clays sabbatical.

Design approaches for patient identification in health networks

My last few posts have looked at the role of data standardization and terminology translation in enabling healthcare organizations to exchange information that can be understand by all. Terminology translation acts as a bridge to make it possible for two organizations to share and understand health data that is "codified" differently.


The need for a "Right-Sized" SOA

I have been writing over the last month or so about how the adoption of SOA is evolving in organizations and that in most cases tactical deployment is occuring by individual business domain driving the need for a "Right-sized" federated SOA which segments and connects an enterprise architecture through appropriately targeted layers of technology. 

What's better for implementing SOA: All-in-One Stack or Best-of-Breed?

Classic architecture considerations never seem to pass up a generation.  The classic debate of whether it is better to buy and implement an "all-in-one" SOA stack from one vendor or to embark on a "best-of-breed" strategy where specific vendors and technology are selected for specific capabilities is a regular discussion I find myself particpating in often. 

Designing for gray scale: under the hood of medical terminology translation

My last couple posts have touched on the importance of data standards in enabling interoperability in healthcare. It is important to recognize, however, that data standardization is not about dictating the way organizations capture and share clinical data.

Simplifying Multicore Optimization for Enterprise Applications

There has been much written and discussed about the technology advantages and business value of multi-core computing. At Oracle Open World last week, Intel's CEO provided several compelling examples of how multi-core computing can improve business outcomes, save dollars, and even potentially save lives.
