STMicroelectronics has decided to buy a company that has been developing compilers for its ST100 digital signal processor (DSP) architecture. Ten-year-old Oregon-based Portland Group specialises in ...
Mitrionics announced details and early performance numbers this week from a recent research project they performed internally. The proof-of-concept compiler project was spearheaded by their chief ...
Programming parallel processors isn't easy, especially when the number of processing elements is large. No single technique applies to all situations. But in its Storm-1 architecture, Stream ...
SAN JOSE, Calif., Sept. 21 /PRNewswire/ — The Portland Group®, a wholly-owned subsidiary of STMicroelectronics (NYSE: STM) and a leading supplier of compilers for high-performance computing (HPC), ...
Flow Computing in Finland has started alpha testing of a RISC-V compiler for its Parallel Processing Unit (PPU) AI block. The PPU is capable of increasing any CPU architecture by up to 100X by using ...
By modifying the 'middle end' of the popular open-source compiler LLVM, MIT computer scientists have created a C compiler that optimizes parallel code better than any other.
According to researchers from MIT, code written explicitly to take advantage of parallel computing usually loses the benefit of a compiler’s optimisation strategies. The reason, they say, is because ...
A technical paper titled “RV-CURE: A RISC-V Capability Architecture for Full Memory Safety” was published by researchers at Georgia Institute of Technology and Arm Research. Abstract: “Despite decades ...
The Rust compiler front end can now use fine-grained parallelism to significantly reduce compile times. Currently experimental, the parallel front end is due in a stable compiler in 2024.
