Which is why all of you running 32-bit versions of Windows can't use more than 3.25GBs of ram, where Linux has been able to do that in 32-bit for some time now. And besides, Linux doesn't include within it the restrictiveness of the attached Windows licensing. As such, there are also no restrictions on the amount of processor cores any Linux user may and employ. So even home users are able to incorporate the Linux advanced server attributes in their daily lives, while sitting in their living rooms.

That's really why things like PhysX are superior to on-CPU physics. You could implement it on an octal core machine or a gpu, and the application developer doesn't have to write all this crazy code with locks and threads and goodness knows what else..

A very simple way to leverage this technology could be to give each process a core of it's own. And the linked processes can be looked at as similar to other distributed systems like the web without the problem of communicating over long distances.

Me too! The potential for simulation in this type of computing environment is immense. This may also help us understand how extremely complex systems interact on finer and finer levels and help us get a better grasp on the next model which will harness the properties inherent at the quantum scale. (i.e. this could be a right step on the path to scalable and practical quantum computing.)]]>Aug 17th 2008 7:56AM
