Processor vendors are starting to emphasize microarchitectural improvements and data movement over process node scaling, setting the stage for much bigger performance gains in devices that narrowly ...

Leading AI systems designs are migrating away from building the fastest AI processor possible, adopting a more balanced approach that involves highly specialized, heterogeneous compute elements, ...

The British chip designer Arm Holdings Ltd. introduced a roadmap for its next-generation central processing unit architecture today. Its new breed of chips will be optimized for specialized workloads ...

The Android operating system is built to run on three different types of processor architecture: Arm, Intel x86, and MIPS. The former is today’s ubiquitous architecture after Intel abandoned its ...

With the launch of the 4 th generation of Intel Xeon Scalable processors and the Xeon CPU Max series, which were codenamed Sapphire Rapids, Intel is charting a new server architecture path for the ...

RISC-V is an open-source Instruction Set Architecture (ISA) that rapidly transforms the CPU design and development landscape. Unlike proprietary ISAs, RISC-V allows free access to architecture ...

Arm is the most prevalent processor architecture in the world. Odds are good that the car you drive contains multiple Arm-based processors hidden within, while the phone you carry absolutely does.

In the eighties, computer processors became faster and faster, while memory access times stagnated and hindered additional performance increases. Something had to be done to speed up memory access and ...
