AWS Graviton2); for memory with the arrival of DDR5 and High Bandwidth Memory (HBM) on-processor; for storage including new uses for 3D Xpoint as a 3D NAND accelerator; for networking with the rise of QUIC and eXpress Data Path (XDP); and so on. I also wrote about these topics in detail for my recent [Systems Performance 2nd Edition] book.

They introduced the architecture of coarse grain reconfigurable array (CGRA) for statically scheduled data flow computing in HOTCHIPS’17 and its software stack of compiler and linker in ICCAD’17. HPU: Holographic Processing Unit (HPU) is the specific hardware of Microsoft’s Hololens. GPU can also be considered as a special SPU.

Hardware virtualization for cloud computing has come a long way, improving performance using technologies such as VT-x, SR-IOV, VT-d, NVMe, and APICv. The latest AWS hypervisor, Nitro, uses everything to provide a new hardware-assisted hypervisor that is easy to use and has near bare-metal performance. I'd expect between 0.1%

I’m going to put them together especially and only for C++ and Beyond 2012 , and I’ll be giving them nowhere else this year: C++ Concurrency – 2012 State of the Art (and Standard). C++ Parallelism – 2012 State of the Art (and Standard). I hope to see many of you at C&B 2012. And there’s a lot to tell. I can’t wait.

Sites that use an excess of resources, whether on the network or on the device, don’t just cause slow experiences, but can leave entire groups of people out. Similarly, there is a growing gap between what a top of the line network connection can handle and what someone with a poor mobile connection or satellite connection can handle.
