The Multicore Association, an industry consortium focused on developing standards that speed time to market for systems using multicore processors, today announced that it has made publicly available a source code example implementation for its multicore communications application programming interface (MCAPI) specification. The example MCAPI implementation, which Freescale donated to the Multicore Association, is comprised of C source code, a set of regression test-cases, and some example benchmarking code.
MCAPI captures the basic elements of inter-core communications that are required for embedded “closely distributed” systems and scales to support hundreds of processor cores.
