| Abstract |
With the latest multicore systems, the age of hardware parallelism is here today. Are your applications ready? Creating C/C++/Fortran applications that take advantage of this parallelism has increased complexity for software developers. Multi-threaded development, debugging, and profiling as well as common multi-threaded issues, such as data race and deadlock conditions, provide challenges in software quality and developer productivity. Learn how to simplify these challenges and fully unlock the potential in multicore architecture. |
