Here are some of the key parallelism-related sessions from this past week:Overview Managed code in Visual Studio 2010 ...
Along with the release of the .NET Framework 4 Beta 1, we've just published a slew of samples that demonstrate using Parallel Extensions in a variety of ways. You can download these from Code Gallery at https://code.msdn.microsoft.com/ParExtSamples.These samples include raytracers, a sudoku game, an image colorization algorithm, solvers for t...
Over on his blog, Don Syme has a post about F# and Parallel Extensions: "Over the coming year I expect we'll be seeing this library used very widely from F#, and we'll eventually be using the TPL as a key underlying technology for F# asynchronous workflows. TPL excels at CPU-intensive parallelism and exploiting multiple cores, especially ...
