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

Parallel Computing In India Introduction to Parallel Computing Traditionally‚ software has been written for serial computation: • To be run on a single computer having a single Central Processing Unit (CPU); • A problem is broken into a discrete series of instructions. • Instructions are executed one after another. • Only one instruction may execute at any moment in time. In the simplest sense‚ parallel computing is the simultaneous use of multiple compute resources to solve
