Programming for Multicore Processors

Multicore CPUs from AMD provide a huge boost in performance over single-core CPUs, but unoptimized programs don’t provide the same kind of benefit as programs written with multicore CPUs in mind. Using AMD’s Extensions for Software Parallelism, ISVs can address the multicore issue head-on and wring the last tiny drop of performance out of the multicore monsters that are finding their way into your data center.
