various concurrency links
Earlier today I was collecting together a series of links on concurrency for my third year project. Just various stuff to read, look at and take note of. I post them here in case anyone else is interested.

Game Benchmarks : Part 2: How Many CPU Cores Do You Need? - This is the game benchmarks page from a Tom's Hardware Guide article on how many cores you need to run apps and games. On average 4 cores only give a 0.6% increase (for games) over 3!

Gamasutra - Features - Multithreaded Game Engine Architectures - Three concurrent alternatives to the common game loop. I'm personally building a mix between the second and third architecture for my engine.

slides by Tim Sweeney

The next mainstream programming language - A bit of this is about concurrency, a bit is also about how functional languages will increase the code quality of games and game middle wear.

The end of the GPU roadmap - Very interesting set of slides on how we can make games highly concurrent in the future.

I have not read these...
