Heterogeneous multiprocessor (HMP) systems, using functionally asymmetric compute elements, such as application processors and microcontrollers integrated within the same SoCs, are now used ...

The longstanding technology trend of creating ever larger and faster processors started fragmenting several years ago when power-density and high-frequency design needs started becoming impediments.

A clearer understanding of the differences between multithreading on a single coprocessor and utilizing multiple processors is essential to designers of wireless systems. Cell phones were among the ...

Potentially substantial performance gains from the use of multithreading and multiprocessing architectures have captured the attention of designers of consumer devices and other electronic products.
