Dataflow design pattern for Multicore-enabled programs

Multicore technology is the solution chosen by hardware manufacturer to translate the advances in semiconductor manufacturing into more processing power. For years, software developers used to run their code on the newer processor with no (or few) modifications to have it run faster. After the move of multicore this is not the case. Software has to be written in a multithreaded or multiprocess manner to take full advantage of the hardware. Software developers will be forced to develop massively multithreaded programs as a way to better use such processors. Multicore CPUs will make parallelism explicit. After more than 40 years of research in the field of parallelising compilers, the results are still limited.

Go Egypt Go!

How can we all experience together the final stand-off game between Egypt and Algeria for the WorldCup 2010 qualifiers, without having to be in the same room?

Just one of the many thoughts we usually muse about during our lunchtime discussions. But this time we decided to do something about it. And so came the idea of creating a page where all tweets regarding the game will be aggregated. Four hours later it was done. Just use the tags #Egypt, #Algeria, #Egyptmatch, and #Sudan in your tweets and keep www.egyptweets.com open throughout the game and afterwards!

So, as all eyes are directed towards Khartoum, all hearts direct to the heavens with their hopes and dreams, direct your browsers to egyptweets.com!

May the best team (a.k.a. Egypt) win!

Cheers!

Web 2.0 is an amazing thing; people everywhere partake in the miracle of communication to share knowledge, ideas, and fun. In the world of blogging and podcasting, no little piece of knowledge is kept secret and anyone with a question is almost certain to find an answer. Which is why it is sad that with so much free access to delivering and obtain knowledge, Arabic content is quite scarce.
