Google’s Dart programming language has received a lot of attention recently, so I took a look at the documentation. The goal of the language is to create a structured but flexible programming language for the web that enables high performance and fast application startup. The documentation notes some problems the language will tackle, and I [...]

Sadly, I learned today that he’s had to close Ateji down because he couldn’t secure a steady flow of cash into the business. Viry says the Ateji team will continue to support existing [...]Yesterday, Advanced Cluster Systems (ACS) issued a press release announcing “a new software solution that parallelises modular sequential software applications, enabling optimal performance on multicore platforms and clusters.” The technology is called Supercomputing Engine Technology (SET), and the company’s CEO Zvi Tannenbaum claims that it makes developing highly scalable parallel code as easy as developing [...]Intel has updated its free online guide to developing multithreaded applications. The guide comprises 24 articles covering application threading, synchronisation, memory management and programming tools. The guide dates back to March 2010, but it’s now been updated with a number of new and revised articles. The updates are: A new article on using AVX without [...]
A threaded application to identify if system VB6 OCX files are exploitable and generates batch file to register updated OCX controls.I find it hard to resist a box of 12” records when I come across it in a charity shop or second hand store. A lot of great remixes were only ever released on vinyl, and the current fashion for releasing compilations of 12” singles can’t possibly cover all the great stuff that was released [...]When you use the Parallel Patterns Library (PPL) that ships with Visual Studio, you have a choice of three different sorting algorithms: parallel sort, parallel buffered sort, and parallel radix sort. So how do you choose the best one? Vinod Subramanian from Microsoft has written a blog post for MSDN which shows the impact that [...]The French Alternative Energies and Atomic Energy Commission (CEA) is among the organisations that’s been experimenting with Knights Ferry, Intel’s software development platform for its Many Integrated Core (MIC) architecture. And it’s recently announced that it’s ported the MPC parallel framework to work on it. If we are to exploit the full potential of manycore, [...]The bonkers bureaucrats of Brussels get a slating in the press often enough, but the EU also makes significant investments in the infrastructure we need for tomorrow. The EU 7th Framework programme aims to help Europe become the world’s leading knowledge economy by promoting research that will help to stimulate growth, competitiveness and employment. It’s [...]Last week I had the pleasure of seeing Tim Berners-Lee talk at RSA Conference in London. As the inventor of the world wide web, he’s had a huge impact on our lives. The history of the internet begins long before the world wide web, but the web made it easy for anyone to publish content [...]When I was at Droidcon last week, I met a student in computer science who had graduated without having covered parallel programming. Education, education, education is essential for solving the parallel programming problem, we’re repeatedly told, and this encounter reinforced the point to me. So now Intel is giving students a chance to get acquainted [...]
