MulticoreInfo selects best multi-core posts of 2009

In 2009, the folks at MulticoreInfo published 1800 blog posts on multi-core computing. A couple of days ago, they selected what they believe were the top 10 posts of the year.

I haven't finished reviewing the selected posts, but I've already bookmarked a couple of them. One offers an introduction to parallel computing and other topics; the other explores the difference between concurrency and parallelism — two words that people often use interchangeably. (Count me among the guilty.)

You'll also find links to OpenMP, OpenCL, CUDA, MATLAB, Grand Central Dispatch, and many other topics, both introductory and advanced. To view the article, click here.

Is QNX also planning to port Grand Central Dispatch? That would be interesting...
