Forbes contributors publish independent expert analyses and insights. I write about disruptive companies, technologies and usage models. Qualcomm's Murthy used a great analogy, a soccer team, to ...

If you follow high-tech like I have for the past 25 years, it probably “feels” like the rate of change is increasing. While I’m not a die hard “Singularity” devotee, it just makes sense that if ...

This article is part of the Technology Insight series, made possible with funding from Intel. As data sprawls out from the network core to the intelligent edge, increasingly diverse compute resources ...

Heterogeneous computing systems integrate diverse processing elements—including central processing units (CPUs), graphics processing units (GPUs) and field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs)—within a ...

In the world of computing, one of the unexpected things to marvel at is the rapid adoption of artificial intelligence (AI) and cloud computing in data centers. These and other forces are driving ...

This sponsored post from Intel highlights the potential of Intel SDK for OpenCL Applications. When tools like CPUs, GPUs, FGPAs or DSPs work together, processing power ramps up. Whether your code will ...

With the ever-increasing demand for more computing performance, the HPC industry is moving towards a heterogeneous computing model, where GPUs and CPUs work together to perform general-purpose ...

Programmable SoCs are shaping up to be an important part of the semiconductor landscape, if they can overcome the verification challenges. If there’s one thing certain in chip development, it’s that ...

For a quick recap, all we have been told about Kryo is that it will appear in a quad-core configuration in the 820, clocked with a peak frequency of 2.2GHz,t it will be built on a 14nm FinFET ...

Figure 1: Applying a MapReduce approach in the cloud to solve embarrassingly parallelizable problems. In the end, none of the systems discussed in these correspondences is trivial to program. The ...

In this video, Philip Harris from MIT presents: Heterogeneous Computing at the Large Hadron Collider. Only a small fraction of the 40 million collisions per second at the Large Hadron Collider are ...

Intel Alder Lake CPUs are rumoured to feature up to 16 cores - but not as you might expect. According to a slide posted to ptt.cc, and said to reflect Intel's intentions, the chipmaker may be looking ...
