HTCondor is an open-source high-throughput computing software framework for coarse-grained distributed parallelization of computationally intensive tasks. [1] It can be used to manage workload on a dedicated cluster of computers, or to farm out work to idle desktop computers – so-called cycle scavenging.
OpenBLAS adds optimized implementations of linear algebra kernels for several processor architectures, including Intel Sandy Bridge [3] and Loongson. [4] It claims to achieve performance comparable to the Intel MKL. On machines that support the AVX2 instruction set, OpenBLAS can achieve similar performance to MKL, but there are currently almost ...
MFEM is a free, lightweight, scalable C++ library for finite element methods that features arbitrary high-order finite element meshes and spaces, support for a wide variety of discretizations, and emphasis on usability, generality, and high-performance computing efficiency.
Multiprocessing Services 2.0, introduced in Mac OS 8.6, [2] is a backwards-compatible major release that increases the level of integration preemptive tasks have with the rest of the system. [ 3 ] Multiprocessing Services 2.1, introduced in Mac OS 9 , [ 1 ] adds support for devices with more than 1 GB of RAM.
The PowerPC 970 ("G5") was the first 64-bit Mac processor. The PowerPC 970MP was the first dual-core Mac processor and the first to be found in a quad-core configuration. It was also the first Mac processor with partitioning and virtualization capabilities. Apple only used three variants of the G5, and soon moved entirely onto Intel architecture.
A reference system on a chip (SoC) implementation based on the OpenRISC 1200 was developed, named the OpenRISC Reference Platform System-on-Chip (ORPSoC). Several groups have demonstrated ORPSoC and other OR1200 based designs running on field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs), [ 8 ] [ 9 ] and there have been several commercial derivatives produced.
Transactional Synchronization Extensions (TSX), also called Transactional Synchronization Extensions New Instructions (TSX-NI), is an extension to the x86 instruction set architecture (ISA) that adds hardware transactional memory support, speeding up execution of multi-threaded software through lock elision.
Audio Units (AU) are a system-level plug-in architecture provided by Core Audio in Apple's macOS and iOS operating systems. Audio Units are a set of application programming interface (API) services provided by the operating system to generate, process, receive, or otherwise manipulate streams of audio in near-real-time with minimal latency.
