In the last few years a number of start-up companies have announced massively parallel processors for embedded DSP applications. With their arrays of processing elements, these processors target ...

You can't swing a dead cat six inches these days without hitting a a new Kickstarter project. When it works, Kickstarter is a great way to tie niche ideas or new concepts directly to people interested ...

[Editor's note: The Ambric architecture is similar to the architecture of the IntellasysSEAforth processor. For a detailed article explaining the advantages of these architectures, see 21st century ...

Modern processor architectures invariably enable the parallel execution of several operations per clock cycle. Configurable processors such as the Improv Jazz VLIW DSP allow the user to modify and ...

Micron’s Automata Processor (AP) uses a unique parallel processing technique that exploits the company’s memory technology (Fig. 1). The parallel processor is similar to an FPGA and a content ...

I just finished reading the new book by David Kirk and Wen-mei Hwu called Programming Massively Parallel Processors. The generic title notwithstanding, readers should not come to this book expecting ...

A new technical paper titled “Massively parallel and universal approximation of nonlinear functions using diffractive processors” was published by researchers at UCLA. “Nonlinear computation is ...

Micron’s Automata Processor performs regular expression matching using a parallel array of state transition elements. The ANML compiler and development tools are now available. Tools for developing ...
