Parallel AI agents are a game changer

I’ve been in this industry long enough to watch technologies come and go. I’ve seen the excitement around new frameworks, the promises of revolutionary tools, and the breathless predictions about what would “change everything.” Most of the time, these technologies turned out to be incremental improvements wrapped in marketing hyperbole. But parallel agents? This is different. This is the first time I can say, without any exaggeration, that I’m witnessing technology that will fundamentally trans

Interdisciplinary Computing and Education for Real-World Solutions

An Interview with Prof. Vipin Kumar – 2025 Taylor L. Booth Education Award Recipient Prof. Vipin Kumar, a Regents Professor at the University of Minnesota, has wide-ranging research interests, which touch on several fields that have significant impact worldwide. His leadership as an educator in computer science and his authorship of foundational textbooks have shaped data mining and parallel computing curricula internationally. Below is an in-depth interview on the technologies he has had a han

Parallels Desktop 26 offers a lot to enterprise users, a little to consumers

The new version of Mac virtual machine software Parallels Desktop, which is most often used to run Windows applications on modern Macs, has just arrived. Parallels Desktop 26 has a lot to offer to the enterprise, but for most end users, it's a pretty minor upgrade mainly meant to prepare for the upcoming launch of the next version of macOS. (It's worth noting that the "26" for this release represents a new versioning scheme meant to map closely to how Apple is now labeling its own operating sys

Parallels Desktop 26 arrives with macOS 26 support and enterprise IT management tools

For nearly two decades, Parallels has been one of the go to solutions for running Windows on the Mac, and with version 26 the company is doubling down on both sides of that equation while making it easier to deploy at work. Parallels Desktop 26 arrives with day one support for macOS 26 Tahoe and Windows 11 25H2, along with a strong set of IT focused improvements that make it easier to manage virtual machines at scale.

How to Use Parallels to Run Windows on a Mac

While Apple is very keen that its macOS software is only ever run on Macs, there are numerous options for doing the opposite and running Windows on Apple computers. If you're a developer, or need access to both Windows and Mac apps, or simply want the flexibility of two operating systems, this isn't too difficult to set up with the right tools. The option we'll cover here is Parallels Desktop for Mac. This is certainly not the cheapest of your options, but it is fully authorized and legal, as w

Steele Jr. believes that it should not be the programmer’s job to think about parallelism, but languages should provide ways to transparently run tasks in parallel. This requires a new approach in building languages supporting algorithms b

An analysis of recent multithreading improvements for a smoother game

UNIT: Dedmen, Programmer, Programming TO: Arma 3 Users OPSUM: An analysis of recent multithreading improvements for a smoother game experience SITREP Welcome to this technical deep dive into Arma 3's performance optimizations in update 2.20. Before handing you over to this blog's actual author, I wanted to share a few words on the state of Live Ops. Yes, REPception is now a thing. Some 12 years since its initial release, we still find ourselves releasing free platform updates to the game. T
