A good processor taxonomy helps you understand processing architectures' sweet spots. You should probably look at multicore options in the same way.Multicore programming: easy or difficult? 3/25/2009
Many commentators are concerned that efficiently and correctly porting existing code onto platforms with four or more cores is beyond the capabilities of many engineers. Others simply state that this is a solved problem and that mature SMP operating systems and threading libraries already exist and are well understood. So who is right?ADVERTISEMENT
