gennuardo lombardi opened the first american pizza shop on spring street in new york city in 1905 . up until the 1950s , pizza was still seen as a foreign food . it seems that since then , pizza has become a staple food in new york . pizzerias began opening in new york and borrowed non - italian ingredients and non - italian restaurants began serving the pizza until it formed a league of its own . soon there were stands on the streets in little italy that served english muffin pizzas which categorized itself as “the traditional pizza with thomas’s english muffin as its base . ”

presence
on a particular block or in a particular neighborhood would be completely unworkable . would the pizza delivery guy have to consult a 1967 map of jerusalem to determine if he was subjecting pizza hut to divestment ? would he have to ask if the recipient of the pizza were arab or jew ? and if an arab and a jew shared the pizza . . .

pizza hut was founded in 1958 in wichita , kansas by brothers dan and frank carney . pizza was a relatively innovative concept at the time , but the pizzeria met with great success . in 1977 , the company was acquired by the food giant “pepsico” . as a result the chain sold the soft drink ” pepsi - cola” and a snack ” frito - lay” , both owned by ” pepsico” .

pizza hut israel opened their first restaurant in 1990 , under the master franchisee clal chains , a subsidiary of clal industries . [ 5 ] initially the chain opened many restaurants in israeli and was very successful [ 5 ] it was in 1996 , when shlomo duhoki through his company penthouse paid the sum of usd 12m and bought the business from clal chains . in 2002 pizza hut israel switch hands again , dor alon the gas company takes over the business from shlomo duhoki . in 2005 udi shamai becomes a partner with dor alon holding 30 % of the business , after 3 years , in 2008 udi buys the rest of the shares from dor through a company controlled by him named tabasco holdings . [ 6 ] by the time of this announcement pizza hut was down to 25 branches , from 33 branches in 2002 . [ 6 ] some of the branches that remained were moved from large sit down locations to smaller delivery focused locations . at the time of the acquisition the chain was down to 20 branches . tabasco although retaining ownership of some locations , also began franchising other locations in israel . [ 5 ]
many fast food chains in judea and samaria such as mcdonald ' s have trouble getting franchises without going through the israeli franchisee . pizza hut , however , did not feel this was needed and allowed the first palestinian arab - owned location to open in ramallah in 2012 . [ 12 ]
but another palestinian businessman , who owns some kfc and pizza hut franchises in the west bank , is planning to open a restaurant within the walls and fences that surround the gaza strip , and a second application has been made for a kfc franchise in the tiny and crowded coastal territory .

best pizza from the chain restaurants in jerusalem , the other top one being big apple , but these are also the most expensive .
we went to this restaurant because our intention was to have a pizza . as soon as we arrived there we have noted that let say was not too clean than the lady that took our order was totally not helpful or friendly . finally the pizza . . .

she accused israel of controlling “palestinian water” also . the water systems that provide clean water to the holy land were built and run by israel to this day . israel provides clean water even to gaza where missiles are fired from at israel . if the arabs were given unfettered control of the water supply the first thing they would do is prevent israel’s access to it from lake kinneret or even poison it if it goes to jewish communities . none of this was explained by dalit baum , only her idea that israel denies palestinians “palestinian water” that would be subject to israeli control .
we couldn ' t get through on the telephone to pre - order but when we got there , it was a quick and easy order and timely wait . we wanted to take out pizza and go watch the sunset and it worked out well . pizza and wings were good .
oren : “they’re calling for boycotting israel – not to change israel’s policies . that’s the difference . when you boycott israel you’re going to bring israel down . these are organisations that realise that attempts to destroy israel by conventional means – the arab - israeli wars , which basically ended in 1973 , terror against israel , which continues today but is much less than it was in previous years – those efforts failed . the new effort to destroy israel is legal and economic and it’s very serious indeed . it is the 21 st century version of warfare and it is every bit as dangerous . we take it every bit as seriously as we took previous efforts to destroy us . ”
in the sixties , pizza really hit it big . in particular , the invention of frozen pizza spread the cheesy gospel far and wide , even to places without pizzerias . by the seventies , the famous ray’s pizza , at eleventh and sixth avenue seemed a proxy for the vitality of the city itself . the famous ray’s has since been renamed the famous roio’s , after it was sued , famously , by a coalition of other rays .

together these documents may be interpreted in ways that hold israel to an impossibly high standard given current realities in the west bank . supporters of israel have long argued that israel’s presence in the west bank is complicated , that most israelis and palestinians want a two - state solution , that it’s the ongoing terror infrastructure that compels israel to sustain its vigilance and that bds is not the way to bring the parties to a negotiated peace .
with that in mind , it’s easy to understand why pizza hut had to move so quickly to quash the humorous ad . granted , we all lose our sense of humor when someone makes fun of our values , but come on , a hefty arab terrorist sitting on the toilet munching on a tortit bar – that’s gotta’ look hysterical even in ramallah .
palestinians and activists are calling for a boycott of pizza hutt after it ran an advert mocking the leader of a mass hunger strike taking place in israeli prisons .
it all started with a facebook campaign led by vegan friendly , a group that promotes the vegan lifestyle in israel . vegan friendly claims to have a virtual community of 30 , 000 vegans in israel , and has stamped hundreds of stores and restaurants with its vegan - friendly seal . the vegans wanted pizza , and they weren ' t going to stop until they got it .

another unique aspect of vectorc { ee } is the included interactive optimizer application . codeplay ‘smart compiler’ technology provides advice back to the developer on how performance gains may be made from the source code , either by changing the source code or embedding the provided extra language features . the goal of the interactive optimizer is to provide an easy mechanism to view this advice and to modify the compiler settings and source code in order to maximize the performance of the output code .
as vp of research and development at codeplay , michael’s focus will be on building out industry - wide support for high - performance acceleration using open standards . the latest developments in artificial intelligence use technologies developed in the video games industry for graphics , but now re - purposed to new uses . enabling machines to see and understand their surroundings will enable cars to drive themselves ; smartphones to understand speech without needing a network connection , and computers to learn from their surroundings and make themselves more useful to their users .
we describe an approach to automatic parallelisation of programs written in sieve c + + ( codeplay’s c + + extension ) , using the sieve compiler and runtime system . in sieve c + + , the programmer encloses a performance - critical region of code in a sieve block , thereby instructing the compiler to delay side - effects until the end of the block . the sieve system partitions code inside a sieve block into independent fragments and speculatively distributes them among multiple cores . we present implementation details and experimental results for the sieve system on the cell be processor .
the vast expertise gained in building optimized close - to - the - metal technology for customers has been utilized in developing codeplay ' s computesuite™ product . it combines the high - level computecpp™ easy - to - use c + + standard development tools , with the low - level computeaorta™ heterogeneous runtime technology to ensure that open standards - based parallel software can run on the widest possible range of platforms and devices . by being modular and standards - based , software developers can mix and match components to ensure that their software runs anywhere and exploits the full power of the underlying system .

codeplay , the uk - based maker of game programming tools , announced a new licensing program for its vectorc { vu } compiler . the company is now offering vectorc { vu } at a quarter the normal price to independent game developers . if the publisher buys the game , the publisher pays the balance . if the game is not published , there is nothing more to pay . the pricing for independent developers is £500 . 00 / e $ 750 . 00 / us $ 790 . 00 . vectorc { vu } is a c compiler ( with some c + + features ) which generates micro - mode code for the ps2 vector units .
codeplay‚äôs sieve c + + parallel programming system aims to minimize the amount of programmer intervention required when writing software for multicore processors . using a sieve marker , programmers mark a section of the program called a sieve block . inside sieve blocks , side effects are delayed , meaning that program code inside sieve blocks can be automatically split into three parts : reading data from memory , pure computation , and writing data back to memory . because of this division , memory operations can be separated , parallelized , and performed by a dma system . the system is aptly named
sieve
because it filters out side effects from software and then lets programmers apply them later . sieve has been tested successfully on the cell be - based playstation 3 and ageia‚äôs physx processor .

the vectorc engine supports c , c + + , and is also one of the first commercial compilers to include support for the most useful c + + 0x features ( such as auto and delegating constructors ) .
vectorc can compile source code with multiple proprietary source extensions . it has built - in support for :
vectorc also supports c + + to c compilation through a fully featured c backend . vectorc can easily be configured to support new language extensions , backends , and optimization pathways .
vectorc performs all the standard non - vector optimizations expected of a high - performance compiler . as the engine understands multiple memory spaces and distributed latencies , it can optimize data - movement through double - buffered streaming dma when required , in addition to standard write combining and prefetching functions .
vectorization so that fast simd vector code can be produced from scalar or vector source code on simd architectures .
portable intrinsic functions that let users write complex vector operations as built in functions . vectorc converts these into the best combination of instructions on each architecture that the source code is compiled for .
vectorizing is the art of recognising implicit parallelisms in standard c and c + + code and automatically taking advantage of advanced cpu ' vector ' units via simd instruction such as mmx , sse / sse2 , 3d now and even altivec when output to c . vectorc , as it s name implies , was designed to exploit vectorization from the outset .
when speed is of the essence , carefully considered code adjustment is required . vectorc s interactive optimizer removes the guesswork in that process and displays the quality of the output assembly of your code along with helpful optimization advice .
vectorc is available as a native implementation on windows based architectures native support on linux - based architectures will be made available when justified by customer demand .
our c source backend allows us to output optimized c + + with or without multicore extensions in the case where rapid prototyping onto a custom accelerator processor is required , and a c compiler for the target already exists . this gives vectorc a distinct advantage over other solutions it can compile c + + code to any architecture which has an existing c compiler . current implementations have been tested on windows and linux with x86 , powerpc linux , and cell linux . the c source is fully compatible with existing c and c + + libraries compiled with visual studio or gcc .
vectorc has been developed from the ground up over a period of 10 years and has no third - party product dependencies .
existing architectures supported : mips , athlon with 3dnow ! , pentium®4 , pentium®4 with sse3 , vu and emotion engine mips core of playstation®2 .
in addition to our advanced optimizations , the full range of normal compiler optimizations are available e . g . global common sub expression elimination , constant folding , use of conditional moves , instruction scheduling , register allocation .

heterogeneous system architecture ( hsa ) foundation is a not - for - profit industry standards body focused on making it dramatically easier to program heterogeneous computing devices . the consortium comprises various semiconductor companies , tools providers , software vendors , ip providers , and academic institutions that develops royalty - free standards and open - source software .
hsa foundation members are building a heterogeneous compute software ecosystem that abstracts away the complexities of heterogeneous systems by specifying runtime and system architecture api’s that run on top of cache coherent shared virtual memory hardware . this architected system removes the need for time consuming operating system calls and runs at user level .
nearly all modern soc’s are heterogeneous systems with large amounts of compute capability . historically each processor was programmed with its own tool chain . obtaining access to the compute agents required expert programmers . hsa simplifies this process by using single source programming where both control and compute code reside in the same file or project .
rather than forcing developers to use unfamiliar programming languages , hsa has adapted its platform to conform to many different programming languages . compilation tools are available from both proprietary and open - source projects ( llvm and gcc ) . hsa compilers are available for c / c + + , opencl , openmp , c + + amp , python and more .
the goal of hsa has been to abstract the processor details in a heterogeneous system without loss of performance . source languages are compiled to hsa’s virtual instruction set hsail . this virtual isa resembles a risc register - based load / store machine with simd operations . an important extension is that hsail retains the parallel information specified in the source language making it easier for a finalizer to generate native machine instructions without loss of performance .
hsaf is driving greater developer productivity in heterogeneous computing by removing many of the barriers of traditional heterogeneous programming , enabling developers to focus on their algorithms and not managing system resources . the hsa foundation seeks to sponsor applications that seamlessly blend scalar processing with high performance compute on cpu’s , gpu’s , dsp’s , image signal processors , vliw’s , neural network processors , fpga’s , and more .

processor architectures are changing all the time . consumer demand for more features and lower prices drives microprocessor design evolution at an ever increasing rate .
this places unavoidable demands on application programmers . when new changes are made or new features are added to a processor , software must be rewritten to take advantage of them .
sieve c + + is an extension to your existing software development environment that provides a highly configurable toolset and c + + programming model for modifying existing source code or writing new applications that are completely portable across different multi - core targets .
c + + language extensions which provide a simple way for programmers to offload chunks of code to a target processor core , similar to using pthreads but less complex and completely os independent .
a custom built sieve runtime library , specially optimized by us to achieve full performance of the target processor .
a sieve c + + compiler , which compiles sieve c + + modified code and generates ansi compliant c through its outputc backend . so long as you have a c compiler * for the target processor element sieve c + + fully supports your platform . the sieve c + + retargetable compiler is equipped with powerful configuration options that allow programmers to enable processor specific features ( such as simd operations , memory spaces ) that they may have on one target platform for their application , but might not be available on another .
if you don t have c compiler and you need one then we can help you with that too . do you want to have your programmers learn new architectures , write new applications and then start over again every time the target processor changes ? if you want to save time and investment in software then sieve c + + retargetable is the tool that will give you the edge over your competitors . whats in it for me ?
we also offer analysis tools to assist programmers in writing performance optimized and dependency - free multicore accelerated code , plus the advice and support of our highly experienced compiler engineers . what do i do now ?
contact us to set up a discussion to explore your needs and requirements . if you decide that our solution is what you need then we will prepare a detailed proposal outlining the components of the system we will build for you , how we will do it and what we will need from you .
in order to assist your team in understanding how sieve c + + will help and how it is used we can provide demo evaluations that run under x86 windows and cell linux if necessary .
