Friday Video: Samsung helps you visualize the benefits of multiple cores
For most engineers, the benefits of having multiple processor cores seem pretty obvious. More resources can do more in less time. However, if you still have trouble visualizing the advantages, here’s Samsung’s 30-second video to clarify things:
Friday Video: Adobe develops new CPU-cycle-burning Photoshop app that’s sure to please customers—automated image deblurring
We have all shot our share of bad, blurred images. Dim light stretches shutter speeds and our subsequent handheld images look like we’ve consumed far too many Jello shots. (That’s just a theoretical statement, of course.) Automated deblurring of such … Continue reading
