Prism for porting single core code to dual core, quad core, and multicore system-on-chip
Anyone migrating software to multicore architectures is justifiably concerned with a particular class of bugs that surface when the original single-threaded code executes in a parallel processing environment. These are the same kinds of errors often encountered when you write multi-threaded software, including data dependencies, race conditions, or deadlocks. Freescale's Jim Trudeau shares common multicore and multithreading programming issues that have challenged our team – and how Freescale is solving the problem. Using our LTE Layer 2 software as a test case, we applied CriticalBlue's Prism, a multicore software analysis tool, to quickly locate sub-optimal code running on the MPC8572 processor. Read more » »

Era of connected intelligence: Managing your health and home energy
