Abstract :
The evolutionary path of microprocessor design includes both multicore and many-core architectures. Harnessing the most computing throughput from these architectures requires concurrent or parallel execution of instructions. The authors describe the challenges facing the industry as parallel-computing platforms become even more widely available.
