Showing papers on "Degree of parallelism published in 1899"

30 Dec 1899TL;DR: Evidence is accumulating that relatively little of the potential speedup of SIMD and MIMD systems can actually be achieved for a broad spectrum of problems.
Abstract: Computer users in many areas of scientific study appear to have an almost insatiable desire for processing power. Many of the computations exhibit a high degree of parallelism which is not exploited in conventional computer structures. Considerable interest has been shown in parallel computer architectures in the last decade in order to make use of this property.
