nCore at the Multicore Expo in Silicon Valley

April 2010 – nCore’s Managing Director Ian Lintault will speak at the Multicore Expo running concurrently with the Silicon Valley Embedded Systems Conference, April 26th-29th. Please join us for an interesting and informative talk on multicore strategies for organizational preparedness.

ME805: Are You Ready for Multicore?
4/28/10 16:00 – 16:45
“Much attention has been paid to the technical side of multicore migration and optimization. However, as a software development leader, your organization’s readiness and ability to migrate products to multicore directly impacts the success of such efforts. This talk outlines strategies for determining organizational readiness in a technical context. As a take away, you’ll be able to perform a self-assessment that uses checklist discipline.”

Lintault will also chair the roundtable panel on sliver bullet parallel solutions:

ME767: Panel: Parallelization Strategies – Finding the silver bullet
4/27/10 15:00 – 15:45
“There will NEVER be a ’silver bullet’ to save programmers from the complexities of multicore — at least that’s what industry experts believe. With regards to tools to parallelize application programs, the programmer will almost always be faced with a tedious process. This will be true whether porting legacy code to an SMP architecture or developing new code targeted for a heterogeneous SoC, and it applies to both HPC and embedded. However, this is not to say that all hope should be lost, as there are many tool developers working diligently to solve some of the problems. This panel of experts will provide their insight into the state-of-the-art in commercially viable solutions for parallelization to take advantage of multicore”
