Imsys Technologies introduces a family of single-chip-system architecture at the fall Microprocessor Forum in San Jose. Making use of the re-configurability of the IM3000.x architecture, the company ...

Data centers continue to heat up as new processors consume more energy than ever before. Cooling is the primary weapon against the heat these processors generate, but it won’t be able to keep up ...

Researchers from Yokohama National University in Japan have developed a prototype microprocessor using superconductor devices that are about 80 times more energy efficient than the state-of-the ...

Radically new processor architecture, reducing overhead high frequency switching, is needed in order to fully utilize the potential of future CMOS technology. Optimizing for energy efficiency, ...

Arm is the most successful microprocessor architecture on the planet, but a rival called RISC-V has emerged, and its proponents held an event to tout it.

The shift from Arm to RISC-V microprocessor cores marks a significant change for Qualcomm and a huge design win for the RISC-V architecture.

New Cores Build on Innovative Architecture First introduced in 2001, NEC's VR5500 microprocessor architecture is becoming popular in digital consumer applications due to its high performance ratio of ...

RISC-V, an open source processor architecture that was created by academics, is gaining momentum in the market as a hardware alternative.

It plans to develop 64-bit RISC-V microprocessor architecture and "push the boundaries of what's possible in computing".

This architecture must address the two distinct requirements of general-purpose programming and high network performance, along with incorporating specific hardware for computationally intensive ...

ARM has introduced its first 64-bit microprocessor architecture, ARMv8, which should enable wider use of ARM chips in servers and other enterprise equipment and turn up the competitive heat on ...
