Multicore processors are currently hitting the market at enormous speed. Multi-processing in all its variants is seen as the way into the future of computational systems and imply parallelism for future applications. The basics of software development are changing when going parallel. One key concept to ensure scalability of today's applications for the future is the idea of using work stealing scheduling systems to ensure load balancing, and re-writing existing software is necessary to exploit that style of programming. The numerous work stealing concepts however differ in form of implementation, interfaces and supported systems. Handling this diversity of systems makes the already complicated process of going parallel even worse. We present a simple but complete work stealing scheduler (TPI -^sTask Processing Interface) as an example and formulate the requirements to a basic work stealing interface as a first step to an open standard proposal.

Game enhanced learning（GEL） or computer aids education（CAE） presupposes that game-like applications and computer-based tools enable to improve learners’ cognitive and social skills. However, there is a limited amount of relevant literature and empirical studies available to provide a better understanding of how the fuzzy mathematical model is applied in an English-as-a-foreign-language（EFL） learning context. This research is intended to propose a decision-making model on the university EFL students’ approach to learning through playing games on Facebook. This study administered an online questionnaire to the university students, and then mined their opinions, in an attempt to build a possible learning approach and analyzing model. The issue of whether CAE combining games motivates university students to learn is explored by employing the fuzzy decision-making model which was applied within this case study. The results indicated a positive relationship between learning and playing games via Facebook as university students playing games on Facebook would enhance learning the subject of English, especially in enhancing learning motivation. This research suggests that it is necessary to apply this fuzzy model in other courses in order to make comparisons. It also suggests that teachers should design simple games for their lessons to enhance their students’ learning motivation.

Electrocardiography (ECG) is the recording of the electrical activity of the heart with the help of the electrodes placed on the skin. The transmission of the ECG signal is very helpful in the field of Telemedicine. This will help the doctors to view the patient's ECG who is living in the remote region. Other applications are ambulance monitoring, Intensive Care Unit (ICU) patient monitoring, home patient monitoring, etc, where Internet of Things (IoT) plays a major role in the transmission of medical data and information. In existing wireless technology like Global System for Mobile Communication (GSM), Satellite, Bluetooth, zigbee, etc., communication of data, installation and other practical difficulties are quite complex. But in IoT even long distance communication is made that much easier when compared to other methods.
