Microsoft has little say in the matter, as does the entire ecosystem of software developers that will have to step up their game and fall in line with the evolution of hardware, further and further into the territory of parallel computing. However, the Redmond company is indeed ready to ride the wave of manycore/mult... |

Apple's website now includes an additional section for the much-rumored, now-confirmed Snow Leopard. The alpine cat will change "focus" for OS X users, but also for developers, rather than add tons of new features, Apple reveals. Nevertheless, Snowpard will include out-of-the-box support for Microsoft Exchange 2... |

Intel and Microsoft have jointly announced this week that they would donate $20 million to some US-based colleges to research on parallel and multicore computing. The research funds are not charity, however, and the two companies expect to get multi-core optimized code in exchange of the money.Multi-core processors a... |

It seems that a multicore computer may have a dangerous vulnerability that can lead to serious security problems. It is all based on concurrency, which is not a capacity that single core computers have. This great feature has been turned into a downfall, by researcher Robert Watson that showed how it could be exploit... |

There is a new trend in the CPU manufacturing industry and it is based on the idea that while clock speeds can only be increased to a certain point as the silicon die hits its limits, a number of other technologies can be implemented in order to speed things up and open the way for better and more powerful central pr... |

The evolution of the processor will in turn dictate the development of future versions of the Windows platform. In this context, Windows Vista's successors will be intimately connected with the next generations of multicore processors. However, this change will not affect only Microsoft and the operating systems... |

Computers have become a much more desirable item ever since the concept of multicore processors hit the market. Having small supercomputers lined up and waiting for your commands make you look like the general who is commanding his army to war, the electronic war. But the main problem with multicore processors wasn&#... |

A revolutionary new polymorphous microprocessor architecture will break all records in terms of processing speed, having the potential of reaching trillions of calculations per second. For the past seven years the research team, led by Professors Doug Burger, Stephen Keckler and Kathryn McKinley, has been working o... |

Seeing how the future is represented by multiple CPU cores, linked together in various ways to give out anything from a simple dual-core offering, to a network array of cores. Whether they are necessary or not, or if the people are going to use such technologies, isn't a matter of discussion, the future has alre... |

The entire idea that stands behind a multicore processor is that it "might" help you do more things at the same time, the term also known as multitasking. And for that reason and that reason alone, the industry has shifted its attention towards milking as much as they can out of the fat cow of progress. In the pursui... |

Why are we in such a dire need of multicore solutions? Is it because our hardware has become so outdated and old fashioned that we have no other choice but to upgrade? I don't think so, not by a long shot, the reason for continuously upgrading our technology is because we are told to do it, whether we know it or... |
