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, ...

Apple explains M5's three core types: super cores for single-thread tasks, performance cores for multi-threading, and efficiency cores.

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 ...

Interconnect mechanisms are application-specific and represent a significant part of a design's value. Being able to capture system-level processor interactions is key to validating your system. You ...

For Alder Lake, Intel is relying on what it says are two new groundbreaking x86 CPU microarchitectures — an Efficiency core and a Performance core — and it will use an intelligent scheduler to tell ...

With its blend of open-source freedoms with the benefits of standardization, the RISC-V (risk-five) Foundation is attracting widespread industry interest. Its core specifications are stable and on the ...
