As with multicore processors, a manycore processor is a parallel architecture integrated into a single circuit. All the issues associated with parallel architectures therefore apply. We will not repeat the basic concepts presented in the article [H 1 088] : "Introduction to parallelism and parallel architectures."

As previously mentioned, manycores are not simply a continuation of multicores. If that were the case, there would be no need to change the terminology. In this section, we review the architectural...
