Each individual core has its cache memory to store its data and execute different data or instructions stream in parallel. Moreover, each core can have one or more threads to execute a specific programming task as shown in the thread-level parallelism. Historically, the multi-cores of the CPU began as two-core processors, with increase in the number of cores approximately by double with each semiconductor process generation \cite{ref12}. The very quick improvements in the performance and thus the increase in the number of cores is devoted in the graphical processing unit (GPU). A current exemplar of GPU is the NVIDIA GeForce TITAN Z with 5700 cores in year of 2015 \cite{ref17}. While the general-purpose microprocessors (CPU) has less number of the cores, for example the TILE-MX processor from Tilera had 100 cores in the same year \cite{ref16}. +These processing units are called cores, which connected with each other via main memory model as in the figure \ref{fig:ch1:10}.
