Why Must Software Be Rewritten For Multi-Core Processors?
Threads have been part of Java since Day 1.
Unfortunately, not sane threads designed by people who actually understand
multithreading.
The nice thing about Java is whether you are on a single core
processor or a 256 CPU machine (We got to run our Athena Integer Java
spreadsheet engine on such a beast), does not concern your code.
You are dreaming if you think that there are any circumstances (other than
circumstances in which performance doesn't matter) in which you don't have to
concern yourself about the difference between a uniprocessor and a 256 CPU
machine.
If you're interested in parallel programming, have a look at Flow-Based
Programming:
