After all, the human brain is itself a massively parallel computer; writing programs that can operate in parallel is the key to making computers that seem more like us and less like machines.

Researchers Using Parallel Processing Computing Could Save Thousands By Using An Xbox Date: September 15, 2009 Source: University of Warwick Summary: A new study has demonstrated that researchers ...

Chemical process simulations are crucial for optimizing industrial operations, but they often require significant ...

To conduct these simulations using traditional CPU based processing one would normally need to book time on a dedicated parallel processing computer or spend thousands on a parallel network of PCs.

If your parallel processing computer has 10 separate chips, you tell each one to add up 800 numbers. When the 10 chips are done, you add up the results from each chip, and you’ve got your answer.

The company makes a reality out of the "2001: A Space Odyssey" fantasy of building self-regulating computer systems using parallel processing.

Software engineering applications are practically unlimited. In fact, software engineering has grown so fast in the last several decades that it has become tightly connected with all other areas of ...

Dr Scarle has found the XBox 360's graphical processing unit can perform much the same scientific modelling as several thousand pounds of parallel network PCs. "This is a highly effective way of ...
