It's important to understand the difference between a standard (such as the Multicore Association's Multicore Communications API, "MCAPI") and the implementation of that standard (such as PolyCore Software's "Poly-Messenger/MCAPI"). In order for software developers to take advantage of a standard, there must be an implementation of that standard that supports the architectures on which the application developer wishes their software to run.
