A new approach to computing could double the processing speed of devices like phones or laptops without needing to replace any of the existing components.

Information moves from one unit to the next depending on which is most efficient at handling a particular region of code in a program. This creates a bottleneck, as one processor needs to finish its job before handing over a new task to the next processor in line. SHMT utilizes processing units simultaneously for the same code region — rather than waiting for processors to work on different regions of the code in a sequence based on which component is best for a particular workload.

"You don't have to add new processors because you already have them," lead author Hung-Wei Tseng, associate professor of electrical and computer engineering at University of California, Riverside, said in a statement.
