Memory Matters
Ed Nisley
Ed remembers to tell you that memory really does matter.
Mac OS X Tiger & 64 Bits
Rodney Mach
Before migrating to 64-bit platforms, the first question to ask is whether you really need to do so.
Multiplatform Porting to 64 Bits
Brad Martin, Anita Rettinger, Jasmit Singh
Porting 300,000 lines of 32-bit code to nearly a dozen 64-bit platforms requires careful planning.
Graphics & the 64-Bit World
Jerry Pournelle
SIGGRAPH, the ACM's Special Interest Group on Graphics, is one of the key places to observe computer trends.
Deep Impact
Jerry Pournelle
Jerry looks back when inventing the future, and looks forward to the world of 64-bit computing.
Removing Memory Errors from 64-Bit Platforms
Rich Newman
It's crucial to address potential memory errors before porting to 64-bit platforms.
Moving to MacTel & 64-Bits
Jonathan Erickson
Randal Hoff, director of business development for Faircom, talks about what's involved in porting existing code bases to Mac OS X Server 10.4 "Tiger" in particular, and 64-bit platforms in general. (MP3 audio, 4:41 minutes)
Porting Compilers & Tools to 64 Bits
Steven Nakamoto, Michael Wolfe
Rehosting compilers and tools to 64-bit processors may not be as difficult as you think.
Linux Itanium Polishes Its Image
Nick Baran
Supporters of a powerful platform want to set the record straight.

Alan Brown
Alan shares some of the lessons learned in porting a Win32 UNIX API layer to 64-bit Windows.
64-Bit Computing & DSPs
Shehrzad Qureshi
Shehrzad examines how the 64-bit features of the C6416 DSP can lead to performance boosts in image processing.
High-Performance Math Libraries
Mick Pont
The AMD Core Math Library is a freely available toolset that provides core math functionality for the AMD64 64-bit processor.
Integer 64-Bit Optimizations
Anatoliy Kuznetsov
To fully utilize the power of 64-bit CPUs, applications need to exploit wider machine words.
Windows & the World of 64-Bit Computing
Vikram Srivatsa
Windows 64-bit Edition and the 64-bit version of the CLR will be major players in the 64-bit software world.
64-Bit Computing & JVM Performance
Sergiy Kyrylkov
Sergiy turns to a pair of 64-bit platforms—the AMD64 and PowerPC64—to gauge the performance of 32- and 64-bit JVMs.
Faster, More Powerful ... 64 Bits
Amit Asaravala
Even if you aren’t building advanced apps in nanoscale electronics, aerodynamics, molecular statics, cell cycle modeling or computational acoustics, you’ll want to remember these 32 pointers for migrating to more powerful processors.
64-Bit Programming in a 32-Bit World
Andy Nicholson
Andy presents proven guidelines for writing C code that's portable across 16-, 32-, or 64-bit processors. The rules include handling high-level and low-level structures, structure packing and word alignment, and machine addressing characteristics.
