I had just one basic question in mind: why can't operating system (OS) do MP thing automatically?! Simply run software with all available CPU units automatically as fast as possible. Can't be too impossible to OS - or is it?


People can parallelize a program, so in principle a program can parallelize a program as well.
First, write a serial chess program in a functional language to ease synchronization between multiple threads.
Then design another program which performs transformations on the chess program while maintaining correctness, and introduces additional threads to increase parallelism.
Finally, we we need a optimization program to find the best performing transformations for the second program to apply to the first program.

I mean, how hard can that be? Cool
