Parallel Scalable Solutions
We offer solutions with focus on
performance and reliability for application
development using state-of-the-art
multi-thread, multiprocess, or distributed
technology:
The scope of our
solutions
Our solutions are
especially suitable for development of
programs on modern multi-core and
multiprocessor platforms in the following
areas:
- Game
Development
- Embedded Systems
- Scientific Computing
- Business and Support Systems
- IT and Telecom
- Other program development
The main technology behind our solutions
The main technology behind our solutions is called non-blocking synchronization. In short, the idea in this approach is to avoid all kind of locking mechanisms and consequently achieve considerably improved performance and real-time properties.
The theory of this new technology is well established in the research community, however known to be very difficult to implement in practice. Very basic and simple constructs are already available broadly, for example in Java's concurrency package and in Microsoft’s .Net interlocked package. As leaders in research and experts in implementation, we have majorly further developed this technology and can offer solutions of much wider span and possibilities never seen before and moreover not available elsewhere.

We offer packaged
off-the-shelf solutions
NOBLE
Professional Edition is a software library
and framework containing state-of-the-art software implementations of the most efficient
algorithmic solutions for multi-thread
and multi-process communication. With
help from NOBLE
Professional Edition, program
developers can efficiently take
advantage of the following benefits:
- Increased performance and scalability.
- Faster and easier product development.
- Increased stability and termination guarantees.
Packaged in this product are decades of research and several years of development. The package includes over 30 powerful components that can be easily inserted in new or existing applications. In more detail the product offers:
- Standardized and transparent interface.
- Parallel versions of common components as Stack, Queue, Deque, Priority Queue, Dictionary, List and Snapshot.

News
Selected recent news and press releases:
May 2008 - Demo Version Available
A demo version of NOBLE for Win32 is freely available for download. The library includes both C and C++ language support. The main purpose with this distribution is to freely evaluate the fitness of the NOBLE API and not for performance.
The version consequently contains a subset of the lock-free implementations available in the NOBLE Professional Edition.

May 2007 - Planned C++ Support
A project have started of supporting C++ natively for the Noble
Professional Library in addition to the C language.
The plan is to have a product ready before the end of this year.
Nov 2006 - MultiCore Expo
We participate with a talk at the MultiCore Expo in Munich, Germany,
Nov 14-15 2006. The talk is given by Dr. Håkan Sundell and Prof. Dr.
Philippas Tsigas from Parallel Scalable Solutions.

Jan 2006 - Essex Radez
The trade and business oriented company Essex Radez LLC continues their engagement with
Parallel Scalable Solutions, this time for a three-month project to develop custom designed
data structures and procedures for lock-free memory management on a process-oriented dynamic connected
shared memory architecture. Since 2004, Essex Radez are employing custom designed data structures with great
success in their server systems, created by us during an earlier project.
