Moisture, infestation and rotting are major problems for farmers and processors, leading to reduced income and aggravating hunger.
Addressing these challenges requires complex synchronization and communication among the processors leading to difficulties in achieving a good speedup by parallelization.
For certain applications, custom computational hardware created using field programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) can produce significant performance improvements over processors, leading some in academia and industry to call for the inclusion of FPGAs in supercomputing clusters.
This is because of aflatoxin contamination of the crop and the difficulty of meeting tolerance limits demanded by importers and food processors, leading to rejection of the crop and reduction in the local and world markets.
ABP – the initials derive from Anglo-Irish Beef Processors – is the leading processor of cattle in Europe.
A technique for scheduling and processor allocation leading to the synthesis of integrated heterogeneous pipelined processing elements, implementing digital signal processing applications, is proposed.
All the leading processor designs are essentially uniprocessor in layout, with limited internal parallelism.
First Data, a leading processor of credit card transactions, fell $2.66, to $37.20, despite reporting earnings in line with forecasts.
But so far, only a handful of cinemas around the world have digital projectors.The industry's leading processor of 35mm film, Technicolor, is trying to secure its future in what might be an almost film-less age.
Even without swallowing Enron, Dynegy is a leading processor of natural gas and one of the top three transporters on every interstate pipeline in North America.
