A recent report found the Core i7 couldn't match the parallel processing performance of an Nvidia GPU, but Intel says rival took the findings out of context Intel tried to push back at coverage of a ...

Parallel processing on a massive scale, based on interconnecting numerous chips, has been used for years to create supercomputers. However, its application to desktop systems has been a challenge ...

A new technical paper titled “Massively parallel and universal approximation of nonlinear functions using diffractive processors” was published by researchers at UCLA. “Nonlinear computation is ...

The processor's SIMD portion enables one instruction to be simultaneously executed by a number (two, four, eight, or 16) of DSP processors called parallel datapath units. The CW4011 implementation ...

At July's Platform Conference in San Jose, fabless IP firm PACT Corp. of Munich, Germany, revealed plans to make the first derivative of its eXtreme processor platform (XPP) available for licensing.

In today’s digital age, computational tasks have become increasingly complex. This, in turn, has led to an exponential growth in the power consumed by digital computers. Thus, it is necessary to ...

Here's a processor primer for novices: classical computing workloads are largely "serial", meaning they go through problems A, to, B, to C, in a series. CPUs have historically been designed through ...
