Major new release for .NET/Delphi cross-platform application framework

Abandoning plug-ins will make browsers better and coding easier

Herb Sutter dives into the repercussions of parallel's reach from mobile devices, to the desktop, to clusters, and — at the highest level of granularity — to the cloud. This welter of different parallel implementations presents significant challenges for programming. The free lunch of sequential programming is well and truly over.

Automated performance for CUDA C/C++/Fortran application acceleration with extra signal processing

As the cloud is quickly demonstrating, small, seemingly underpowered servers are quite enough for most development tasks. Buying one of these low-cost, low-power units makes clear how much developer-friendlier they are than datacenter solutions

The latest books off the press cover code readability, Java performance, hunting for and prying open security defects, game testing, architecture, and even OpenVMS.

Sometimes seemingly serial computations may be coded with parallel algorithms if you can figure out how to present the final results in the proper order.

The newest version of CoreInfo provides a detailed summary of all the instructions sets that the CPUs found on the system support.

Klocwork 9.5 is on-the-fly source code analysis

Once the processor is running and memory has been initialized, timers and devices must be started up and a memory map laid out. Only then, can the OS be loaded.

Give up your sequential linked lists in favor of tree structures for all of your unordered data when processing that data in parallel.

Sometimes technology that has become trendy is a branch on an evolutionary tree; other times it's a revolutionary departure from the long-established status quo.

Historically speaking, the most profound change in the way we build software today is in how we care for the user.
