Welcome to Asynchronous Operations
TechEd Europe 2009 Session "Parallel Programming for Embedded" by Asaf Shelly
This session is for the general public since Multi-Core
for Windows Embedded is only based on Windows XP / Windows 7 today. The session
talks about embedded systems because these systems have always supported
parallel work and the concepts and design patterns are well founded. The session
has no code samples so every programmer can benefit from it.
This site deals with the various aspects of parallel
computing including multi-core programming and grid computing, with
acknowledgement of the
Multicore League.
What used to belong to unique experts and specialists a
year ago is about to become common practice for everyone. Parallel computing is
not a library that we install, it is not a tool that we use, and there is no
wizard to do the work for us.
Working in the parallel world means thinking in parallel,
designing in parallel and working according to this new design. It changes the
way we code and debug, it changes the way we design and it all start with a
change in system architecture. You cannot get good results with old school
architecture and some sort of a parallel language! Good architecture however may
include parallel infrastructure and serial user code.
Generally speaking most solutions we see today have long
existed at the 1970's and even before that. We have only discovered the relics
of what was once a flourishing civilization of parallel programmers. Welcome
to the Renaissance
