White Paper: Ensuring Code Quality in Multi-threaded Applications
Most developers would agree that consumers of software today continually demand more from their applications. Because of its pace of evolution to date, the world now anticipates a seemingly endless expansion of capabilities from their software, regardless of where that software is applied. For the last 40 years of computing, Moore’s Law had held true, with the processing power of computers doubling every two years. This constant pace of ...
