Multi-core optimization has allowed modern processors to brute force their way through heavier workloads with parallelization ...

Since 2005, computer CPU chip makers have increasingly adopted the use of multiple cores to increase performance. Each core runs a separate computing task, so the computer gets more work done. Before ...

CPU (Central Processing Unit) is the most important part of a computer. All the calculations needed to run a particular task or application on a computer are processed by the CPU. That’s why it is ...

It's hard to overemphasize how far computers have come and how they have transformed just about every aspect of our lives. From rudimentary devices like toasters to cutting-edge devices like ...

If I have a computer with a 2.66GHz quad-core processor, will it run my software and games faster than my 3.2GHz single-core Pentium 4? Yes, quad-core CPUs are generally much faster than single-core ...

Although computers with quad-core processors are typically faster than single-core models, the difference in speed depends on a number of factors. On a very busy system and under ideal conditions, a ...

Software development for embedded multi-core processors is considered to require a large expenditure and to be difficult. Researchers have now developed a new integrated tool chain to facilitate ...

We have had multi-core processors in our PCs for over a decade, and today they are considered the norm. At first it was dual-core, then quad-core, and today companies like Intel and AMD offer high end ...

NEW YORK-April 21, 2005-Charting another industry first, AMD (NYSE: AMD) today introduced a broad portfolio of dual-core solutions from server and workstations for enterprise users to desktop and ...

"Businesses face huge challenges when it comes to managing global mobile workforces, network security, mountains of complex information, and sprawling networks of communications, and computing devices ...

Douglas Eadline has put some of the latest multicore processors through their paces in a new feature article on the ClusterMonkey site. Rather than using the fastest (and most expensive) processors ...
