every two years. Moore ’s law describes a long-term trend in the history of computing hardware. The number of transistors that can be placed inexpensively on an integrated circuit has doubled approximately every two years. Moore ’s law is a rule of thumb in the computer industry about the growth of computing power over time. Attributed to Gordon E. Moore the co-founder of Intel‚ it states that the growth of computing power follows an empirical exponential law. Moore originally proposed a 12 month

Chapter 1: Parallel Computing at a Glance 1 1 Parallel Computing at a Glance It is now clear that silicon based processor chips are reaching their physical limits in processing speed‚ as they are constrained by the speed of electricity‚ light‚ and certain thermodynamic laws. A viable solution to overcome this limitation is to connect multiple processors working in coordination with each other to solve grand challenge problems. Hence‚ high performance computing requires the use of Massively
