This is the second in the series on the essentials of multiprocessor programming. This time around we are going to look at some of the normally little considered effects of having memory being shared ...

Using commodity hardware and the “plug-and-play” NumaConnect interconnect, Numascale delivers true shared memory programming and simpler administration at standard HPC cluster price points.

This month, I give a crash course in parallel programming so you can get a feel for what is involved. There are two broad categories of parallel programs: shared memory and message passing. You likely ...

Week 5: Putting everything to work: Parallel Reductions. Topics include: global synchronization, kernel decomposition, memory coalescing, non-divergent branching, eliminating shared-memory bank ...

In previous articles (1 and 2) here on insideHPC, James Reinders described “Intel Xeon Phi processor Programming in a Nutshell” for Intel’s 72-core processor. In this special guest feature, he ...

EPEEC will rely on three principle run-time components: OmpSs, a shared-memory programming model based on pragma directives and tasking, GASPI, a partitioned global address space programming model ...

In addition to shared memory programming, Multicore OCaml will also bring improvements to concurrency programming through the introduction of effect handlers, which provide the foundation for non ...

An excerpt from Linux Programming by Example: The Fundamentals explaining memory management and the Linux/Unix address space.
