Introduction to parallel computing for scientists and engineers. Shared memory parallel architectures and programming, distributed memory, message-passing data-parallel architectures, and programming.

This week is the eighth annual International Workshop on OpenCL, SYCL, Vulkan, and SPIR-V, and the event is available online for the very first time in its history thanks to the coronavirus pandemic.

We take a look back at the progress made in parallel computing with James Reinders, Parallel Programming Models Architect at Intel, who also shares his thoughts on how developers can get involved ...

I just finished reading the new book by David Kirk and Wen-mei Hwu called Programming Massively Parallel Processors. The generic title notwithstanding, readers should not come to this book expecting ...

In high performance computing, machine learning, and a growing set of other application areas, accelerated, heterogeneous systems are becoming the norm. With that state come several parallel ...

The difference between distributed computing and concurrent programming is a common area of confusion as there is a significant amount of overlap between the two when you set out to accomplish ...
