 Heterogeneous Processing Needs Software Revolutions
Whether we consider heterogeneous system architectures, hardware technology, language processing, etc., etc., there are no private-sector computer architects or government agencies who either can, or are willing to, assume a leadership role; there are no compelling visions of heterogeneous processing from which to choose.
As heterogeneous processing began to be understood, it became clear that we have to generate parallelism both inside and _outside_ of the processors (at the system level, as it were) and to exploit heterogeneity to create entirely new approaches to generating locality.
Heterogeneous multicore can also mean a microarchitecture in which (some of) the cores are full-custom designs of vector and/or multithreaded latency-tolerant processors.

 Heterogeneous polymerization in carbon dioxide - Patent 5312882
Emulsion polymerization is a heterogeneous process often used by industry to polymerize a wide variety of monomers using free radical mechanisms.
However, neither of these references disclose a heterogenous polymerization reaction in which CO.sub.2 is the continuous phase medium and in which a surfactant is included to induce micelle formation, nor is a surfactant suitable for use in such a polymerization disclosed.
The term "heterogeneous reaction" is intended to encompass both suspension polymerizations, in which any polymerization initiator is preferentially solubilized in the dispersed phase, and emulsion reactions, in which any polymerization initiator is preferentially solubilized in the continuous phase.

 Introduction To Heterogeneous Databases
The heterogeneities that are due to differences of the various database management systems that are invoked in a heterogeneous database, and the heterogeneities that are due to differences in the semantics of the data.
In the second sub-category we have the heterogeneous databases that include databases which have differences in the representing meaning of the data or in the translation or the use of the same or relative data.
The heterogeneities in the schema and in the semantics of the component databases are a serious problem in the design and the use of multidatabase systems.

 Is it Time for Heterogeneous Supercomputing?
With all the talk of heterogeneous supercomputing over the last few years, one might get the impression that a revolution is on the horizon.
The general idea behind heterogeneous processing is that a system containing different kinds of compute engines can be matched up with the type of code that runs most efficiently on them, increasing overall application performance.
But a heterogeneous architecture "revolution" seems unlikely while homogeneous multi-core architectures are so dominant in the commercial space.

 An integration platform for heterogeneous bioinformatics software components
The problem of integrating heterogeneous software is of immense importance to the field, especially because a rapid pace of change and a general scarcity of development resources discourage re-engineering and compel developers to find ways to use legacy resources.
The platform is not restricted in its utility to bioinformatics, and could be useful for any rapidly changing field in which the integration of heterogeneous legacy components is important.
A third approach is to package heterogeneous software tools and databases as components adhering to standard, well-defined interfaces, according to which information can be exchanged.

 The Heterogeneous Classroom
According to Webster's New Collegiate Dictionary, heterogeneous means "consisting of dissimilar ingredients or constituents: mixed." The movement in education is away from grouping of students by perceived ability level--tracking--and toward a heterogeneous learning environment, where students with different mathematical maturity and development levels are in the same classroom.
First on the agenda for working with a heterogeneously grouped class is to confront the expectations created in all of us by conventional conceptions of intelligence--conceptions that have led to ability-level grouping.
Students in a heterogeneous class will not vary only in their mathematics backgrounds; they will also vary in their writing ability.

 Promising Practice:  Heterogeneous Grouping   (Site not responding. Last check: )
Students that are grouped heterogeneously get a chance to interact with students from a variety of backgrounds.
