The Multicore Association’s roadmap consists of an extensive set of application programming interfaces (APIs) that support multicore communications, resource management, and task management. These APIs provide a foundation for services and functions including load balancing, power management, reliability, and quality of service. Software development tools can utilize the system-agnostic APIs, which will also provide support for other MCA roadmap elements such as programming languages and models, hypervisors, and design environments.
The first meeting took place in San Jose, California on May 16, 2005
