A Split at the Core: physics is forcing the microchip industry to redesign its most lucrative products. That is bad news for software companies

Article Abstract:

Microprocessor designs for server and desktop computers are shifting from one core, or computational engine, to two, both on the same chip. This will make them more flexible and efficient, but presents parallelism problems for the software industry, as debugging relies on repeatability.
