We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "Multiprocessing",
and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Electronicstalk which will be of interest.
Let me be your guide.
Start with
the news release Multicore processors aim for automotive multimedia from
Renesas Technology Europe, which we summarised at the time by saying "Each device incorporates two Renesas Technology SH-4A high-performance CPU cores to achieve superior processing power of up to 1920MIPS".
Earlier in the week,
we featured the news release AdvancedMC module sports four top-speed DSPs from
CommAgility: "Module is optimised for applications requiring high-end signal processing, such as wireless baseband image processing, defence and aerospace applications".
In January 2008, we covered the news from National Instruments
- take a look at Multicore organisation improves interoperability
which says: "National Instruments is collaborating with technology companies including Intel, Freescale Semiconductor and Wind River to improve the interoperability among operating systems".
Take a look also at the news release from Sysgo, Board support package meets avionics needs,
as well as Compute engine boosts speed without more power from Mistral Software,
and MicroTCA platform is made for multiprocessing from Kontron UK.
