Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Concurrent programming is an intense area of research in computer science. There are two types of concurrent programming. Multiprogramming refers to multiple processes executing on a single processor in the same time period by using a method called Time-slicing. Multiprocessing refers to multiple processes which execute at the same time each on its own processor. This paper deals with the issues of multiprocessing. A process is defined as a section of code which is executed sequentially. However, there is a problem with these new multiprocessing systems. The problem centers around the fact that the software industry has failed to keep pace with the multiprocessing enhancements produced by the hardware industry. This paper has two objectives. The first objective is to investigate and document the mechanisms for process creation and control on a commercial multiprocessing system. The Texas A & M Sequent Balance 8000 Multiprocessing System is the target of this objective. The second objective is to add a new mechanism to this existing system that easily and clearly expresses process creation.

Download or read book Creative Destruction written by Richard Foster and published by Crown Currency. This book was released on 2011-04-20 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Turning conventional wisdom on its head, a Senior Partner and an Innovation Specialist from McKinsey & Company debunk the myth that high-octane, built-to-last companies can continue to excel year after year and reveal the dynamic strategies of discontinuity and creative destruction these corporations must adopt in order to maintain excellence and remain competitive. In striking contrast to such bibles of business literature as In Search of Excellence and Built to Last, Richard N. Foster and Sarah Kaplan draw on research they conducted at McKinsey & Company of more than one thousand corporations in fifteen industries over a thirty-six-year period. The industries they examined included old-economy industries such as pulp and paper and chemicals, and new-economy industries like semiconductors and software. Using this enormous fact base, Foster and Kaplan show that even the best-run and most widely admired companies included in their sample are unable to sustain their market-beating levels of performance for more than ten to fifteen years. Foster and Kaplan's long-term studies of corporate birth, survival, and death in America show that the corporate equivalent of El Dorado, the golden company that continually outperforms the market, has never existed. It is a myth. Corporations operate with management philosophies based on the assumption of continuity; as a result, in the long term, they cannot change or create value at the pace and scale of the markets. Their control processes, the very processes that enable them to survive over the long haul, deaden them to the vital and constant need for change. Proposing a radical new business paradigm, Foster and Kaplan argue that redesigning the corporation to change at the pace and scale of the capital markets rather than merely operate well will require more than simple adjustments. They explain how companies like Johnson and Johnson , Enron, Corning, and GE are overcoming cultural "lock-in" by transforming rather than incrementally improving their companies. They are doing this by creating new businesses, selling off or closing down businesses or divisions whose growth is slowing down, as well as abandoning outdated, ingrown structures and rules and adopting new decision-making processes, control systems, and mental models. Corporations, they argue, must learn to be as dynamic and responsive as the market itself if they are to sustain superior returns and thrive over the long term. In a book that is sure to shake the business world to its foundations, Creative Destruction, like Re-Engineering the Corporation before it, offers a new paradigm that will change the way we think about business.
