Release Notes
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The multicore revolution is at hand. Parallel processing is no longer the
exclusive domain of supercomputers or clusters. The entry - level server and
even the basic developer workstation have the capacity for hardware - and
software - level parallel processing. The question is what does this mean for
the software developer and what impact will it have on the software development
process? In the race for who has the fastest computer, it is now more attractive
for chip manufacturers to place multiple processors on a single chip than it is
to increase the speed of the processor. Until now the software developer could
rely on the next new processor to speed up the software without having to make
any actual improvements to the software. Those days are gone. To increase
overall system performance, computer manufacturers have decided to add more
processors rather than increase clock frequency. This means if the software
developer wants the application to benefit from the next new processor, the
application will have to be modified to exploit multiprocessor computers.
