Parallelism used to be the domain of supercomputers working on weather simulations or plutonium decay. It is now part of the architecture of most SoCs. But just how efficient, effective and widespread ...

Micron’s Automata Processor provides a parallel pattern recognition system that supports regular expressions. When looking for the best, it is often useful to examine the new or unusual to see if it ...

In this article we will be discussing various aspects of multicore processing, including a look at different types of multicore processors and why these devices are becoming common and popular today.

Multi-core processors theoretically can run many threads of code in parallel, but some categories of operation currently bog down attempts to raise overall performance by parallelizing computing. Is ...

In many low-power applications, the processor is a major contributor to the overall system energy consumption. Hence, the processor typically plays a key role in determining a product's battery life.

You can't swing a dead cat six inches these days without hitting a a new Kickstarter project. When it works, Kickstarter is a great way to tie niche ideas or new concepts directly to people interested ...

AUSTIN, Texas — With an $11 million grant from the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency and collaborative support from IBM Corp.'s Austin Research Lab, a team of computer architects at the ...

When developing or modifying an application to run in a heterogeneous environment that consists of a main CPU (Intel Xeon) and a coprocessor (Intel Xeon Phi coprocessor), it is important to tune for ...

Micron’s Automata Processor performs regular expression matching using a parallel array of state transition elements. The ANML compiler and development tools are now available. Tools for developing ...
