Parallel processing

Bene involved on projects with parallel processors

including back in the 80's a big mil one with transputers,

The problem that I keep seeing , is resources

people,

Its like "RTL" design, VHDL / System Verilog etc,

these are really parallel,

and need a mind set to program efficiently

that's very different to C++ programmers.

In RTL world, there are for ever new ideas as how to take C++ and make RTL

they all have there place, but are generally "CR**" . not that good

Transputrers were fantastic

we just could not get the programmers to think parallel

as such the tools concepts were just alien to them,

If some one can invent a way to program in C++

and it run efficiently on parallel processors,

they would make a fortune,
