The paradigm of parallel computing is going to have to be developed a lot more in order for there to be an actual use of anything over 16 cores or so anyway.
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.

"..maybe i'm slightly mistaken on the details, but I really look forward to the age of accelerated physics APIs."
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.)
Now that we've thrown 'em off the trail, use the form below to get in touch with the people at Engadget. Please fill in all of the required fields because they're required.
