OpenCL Parallel Programming Development Cookbook

Let's start the journey by looking back into the history of computing and why OpenCL is important from the respect that it aims to unify the software programming model for heterogeneous devices. The goal of OpenCL is to develop a royalty-free standard for cross-platform, parallel programming of modern processors found in personal computers, servers, and handheld/embedded devices. This effort i…

OpenCL Programming by Example

Parallel Computing has been extensively researched over the past few decades and had been the key research interest at many universities. Parallel Computing uses multiple processors or computers working together on a common algorithm or task. Due to the constraints in the available memory, performance of a single computing unit, and also the need to complete a task quickly, various parallel com…

GLOBAL DIMENSIONS OF INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS IN SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY

We live today in a world in which the economic health of nations and the competitiveness of firms is determined largely by the ability to develop, commercialize, and most importantly, to appropriate (or capture) the economic benefits from scientific and technological (S&T) innovations. Intellectual property rights (IPRs), such as patents and copyrights, are an important means used by firms to h…

Oracle PL/SQL Programming

Oracle’s reference manuals may describe all the features of the PL/SQL language, but they don’t tell you how to apply the technology. In fact, in some cases, you’ll be lucky to even understand how to use a given feature after you’ve made your way through the railroad diagrams. Books and training courses tend to cover the same standard topics in the same limited way. In this book, I’ll…

Palm OS Programming

Palm OS Programming is a comprehensive introduction to programming for the Palm operating system, the fastest growing computer operating system and platform ever created, and certainly the most popular mobile computing platform in existence today. Throughout my career in software, whenever I was confronted with the challenge of quickly and efficiently getting up to speed with a new operating s…

Computer Networks: An Open Source Approach

Computer networking or data communications is a set of disciplines concerned with communication between computer systems or devices. It has its requirements and underlying principles. Since the first node of ARPANET (Advanced Research Project Agency Network, later renamed Internet) was established in 1969, the store-and-forward packet switching technologies formed the Internet architecture, whi…

Japan's Growing Technological Capability

The growing Japanese role in high technology raises a number of questions for the United States. Some of these questions relate to the current status of the two countries, for example, in what industries do Japanese firms hold technologies more advanced than their U.S. rivals? Are there industries in which U.S. firms still lead but are under serious challenge by Japanese firms? Are there sector…

Cleaner-Energy Investments

Clean energy is the flavor of the times. With a view to bringing the phrase closer to reality, I would prefer to refer to it in relative terms as Cleaner Energy. Investors have had divergent views of the sector: from being a genuine business opportunity, especially when attractive preferential tariffs are on offer, to a peripheral activity that helped “green wash” other business operations.…

Parallel Programming with Microsoft® Visual Studio® 2010 Step by Step

Parallel Programming with Python

Parallel programming can be defined as a model that aims to create programs that are compatible with environments prepared to execute code instructions simultaneously. It has not been too long since techniques of parallelism began to be used to develop software. Some years ago, processors had a single Arithmetic Logic Unit (ALU) among other components, which could only execute one instruction a…
