Freeing Programmers from the Shackles of Sequentiality.

Current programming systems shackle developers to a sequential coding paradigm. This paradigm hampers developers from taking advantage of emerging large‐scale multicore hardware. We propose a platform which builds in concurrency by default: instead of sequencing code, programmers express dependency information, which is used by a compile‐time checker to verify correctness conditions, and by the libraries and runtime system to enable concurrent execution. As a result, developers can write parallel code in a natural style and have confidence in its correctness and performance.

AEMiniumGPU is a framework composed by a compiler and a runtime for the development of parallel programs that can execute either in CPUs or GPUs. It available for download the following address: https://github.com/alcides/AeminiumGPUCompiler/ [1]

AEminium at the University of Madeira

The organizers of FMICS'11 selected the article "Multi-Task Threaded Server: A Case Study With The Plural Tool" by Néstor Cataño and Ijaz Ahmed for submission to Science of Computer Programming (SCP). FMICS invited 7 papers in total and will select 5 of them for final publication to SCP. This article discusses the business case provided by AEMinium's industrial partner Novabase.
