Assuming that the multicore revolution plays out the way the microprocessor industry expects, it seems that within a decade most programming will involve parallelism at some level. One needs to ask how this affects the the way we teach computer science, ...

The challenge for the microarchitect has always been (with very few notable domain-specific exceptions) how to translate the continually increasing processing power provided by Moore's Law into increased performance, or more recently into similar ...

The arrival of multi-core chips has heightened interest in the discipline of parallel programming, a topic that has received much attention for many years. Computer architects have much to learn from sound principles for structuring software and ...
