Helping design and engineering professionals discover, evaluate and specify technologies and processes that shorten the design cycle and enable success.
Cut Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) Hallucinations by 50%
Most teams hit the same wall with enterprise AI: LLMs that hallucinate, pipelines that don’t scale, and infrastructure that’s harder to design than the models themselves.
What Is Intelligent BOM Management? A Guide to Smarter Product Development
Learn how intelligent Bill of Materials (BOM) management helps teams collaborate, reduce errors, and bring innovative products to market faster with cloud-based PLM tools.
Aptech Systems, Inc. (Black Diamond, WA) is shipping GAUSS version 9.0, the latest version of its GAUSS Mathematical and Statistical System that includes functions for multi-threading both new and existing programs.
This illustration shows one thread set with four threads. Each thread processes at the same time as the other threads. Your program waits at the ThreadJoin command for all threads to fi nish. When the threads have completed, your program continues, making use of the work the threads have done.
In the example here, this block of code could potentially run nearly four times faster on a quad core machine because the threads are running simultaneously. Internal testing by Aptech has found speed increases of up to 330 percent using four threads on a four-core system. GAUSS 9.0 allows the creation of an unlimited number of threads, allowing users to take full advantage of multi-core and multi-processor machines. Thread creation is limited only by operating system resources.
Threads can be created anywhere in a program, including inside procedures and keywords. These threads share the same workspace and can access all of the same symbols, procedures and keywords.
GAUSS 9.0 includes additional array support; more mathematical functions will handle arrays seamlessly; and it is available for Windows (32-bit), Linux (32-bit and 64-bit), and Sun SPARC (64-bit).
