Multicore Architectures

Andrzej Nowak

Multicore Architectures

This lecture will explain why multi-core architectures have become so popular and why parallelism is such a good bet for the near future.
Important topics:

  • Scalability and parallelism

  • General multi-core architecture characteristics

  •  Multi-core caveats and trade-offs

In particular, the changes in computing landscape will be discussed, as well as the impact that modern hardware has on software.

Audience - Pre-requisite
Listeners don't need to have advanced knowledge about parallel computing.
