Please don't add stream procesing onto Parallel Computing. Stream Processing is a method of procesing warp (aka threads) base on / originated from event-driven orientated programming, these technologies are thus use on some GPU processors, and they are more concerned with the Kernel Engineering and Scheduling mechanism of the microarchitecture of a CPU than directly related to the Parallel Computing Template. --[[User:Ramu50|Ramu50]] ([[User talk:Ramu50|talk]]) 18:21, 22 October 2008 (UTC)

::: Ramu50, as I mentioned on the [[talk:CPU Technologies|CPU Technologies talk page]], you misunderstand what Flynn's taxonomy is about. It is not describing "technologies" that a designer might use or not. It is a classification system: You can work on one or multiple instruction streams, and you can work on one or multiple data sets at a time. That gives four possibilities and there aren't any others; ''every'' CPU or multi-CPU complex must fit into one of these. Flynn's taxonomy is a useful model for analyzing and describing ''any'' CPU.

== Distributed shared memory? ==
 
Should the navbox have a link to [[distributed shared memory]]? [[User:Rilak|Rilak]] ([[User talk:Rilak|talk]]) 06:13, 27 October 2008 (UTC)
 
: But it does already! [[User:Letdorf|Letdorf]] ([[User talk:Letdorf|talk]]) 11:00, 27 October 2008 (UTC).
 
:: Oops! So it does! Would it be more appropriate for it to be under "Memory" with the other memory-type links? I guess I didn't see it because it wasn't there. [[User:Rilak|Rilak]] ([[User talk:Rilak|talk]]) 05:23, 28 October 2008 (UTC)
 
::: Yes there's definitely scope for tweaking the categories in this template for the sake of clarity. [[User:Letdorf|Letdorf]] ([[User talk:Letdorf|talk]]) 13:07, 28 October 2008 (UTC).
 
== PVM? ==
 
Should the navbox have a link to [[Parallel Virtual Machine]]? [[Special:Contributions/85.124.239.162|85.124.239.162]] ([[User talk:85.124.239.162|talk]]) 15:31, 27 August 2009 (UTC)
 
: Fair point; done. [[User:Letdorf|Letdorf]] ([[User talk:Letdorf|talk]]) 12:55, 28 August 2009 (UTC).
 
== Thread safety ==
 
I was thinking: should this template have a link to [[thread safety]]? --[[User:Adamd1008|Adamd1008]] ([[User talk:Adamd1008|talk]]) 01:33, 23 August 2010 (UTC)
 
== Add distributed frameworks ==
 
I am not sure if distributed frameworks should be added to parallel computing. Distributed frameworks such as [[Apache Hadoop]] and [[Apache Spark]] could be deemed useful in this template page. Please let me know or scribe in my talk page about your thoughts. -- [[User:LokeshRavindranathan|LokeshRavindranathan]] 05:13, 16 February 2015 (UTC)
