In the OpenACC programming model, these three forms of parallelism (multicore, multi-threading and SIMT/SIMD) are called Gang, Worker, and Vector parallelism.

Nous's DisTrO, Distributed Training Over-the-Internet, allows foundation class models to be trained without expensive superclusters.

So what’s the difference? At a fundamental level, distributed computing and concurrent programming are simply descriptive terms that refer to ways of getting work done at runtime (as is parallel ...

Microsoft Research is working on an open-source distributed analytics platform, codenamed Prajna, that is similar to Apache Spark, and meant for building distributed cloud services.

A programming model for distributed systems and parallel processing, wherein the "actor" is the primary element of computation similar to an "object" in object-oriented programming (OOP).

We evolved it into a more general-purpose distributed programming model based on durable execution, virtual objects and durable promises — and put it on an event-driven foundation,” Ewen said.
