Forty Years of X-Ray Binaries
In 2012 it was forty years ago that the discovery of the first X-ray binary Centaurus X-3 became known. That same year it was discovered that apart from the High-Mass X-ray Binaries (HMXBs) there are also Low-Mass X-ray Binaries (LMXBs), and that Cygnus X-1 is most probably a black hole. By 1975 also the new class of Be/X-ray binaries was discovered. After this it took 28 years before ESAs INTE...

متن کاملForty Years of Amdahl’s Law
Forty years ago, Gene M. Amdahl published a landmark paper, and described what has come to be known as “Amdahl’s Law.” This law can be viewed as casting a negative light on the prospects for parallel computation; few applications can achieve linear speedup (in terms of the number of processors), and in most cases, speed improvements are asymptotic. The key insight from Amdahl is that in softwar...
