The True Powers of Multi-core Smartphones
Just as the multi-core processors took all the attention in general computing field in the past decade, so too multi-core smartphones are taking all the attention today. Relying on the principles of tasks and data parallelism. We propose in this paper a parallel programming approach on quad-core smartphones to do a big matrices multiplication, and show how to increase the utilization of processors to achieve improvement on the systems runtime.
Keywords: Smartphone, Parallel processing, Multi-core processor, Matrices multiplication.
