What’s This All About?

This blog is intended to cover various subjects related to the low-level interactions of software and hardware, with a special emphasis on the issues associated with parallel shared-memory programming.

I will also cover other, somewhat related, things where I have knowledge that seems worth consolidating since I haven’t found it elsewhere.

I hope that it will provide interesting and useful information that echoes and extends the ideas presented in the book Michael Klemm and I have written (High Performance Parallel Runtimes - Design and Implementation).

Where non-trivial code samples are required, they’ll be posted at https://github.com/parallel-runtimes/CPU-fun.

Anything here is my opinion. As you can probably tell, I'd rather be skiing.
