Intel continues to develop smaller and smaller microprocessors, and to fit them into elegant platforms to run just about any kind of computer, from sophisticated server arrays to a brand-new class of ultra-portable devices, known as Mobile Internet Devices (MIDs). MIDs created some genuine buzz at CES 2008 in ...

The Internet has been a technology that users go to, on their towers and now on their laptops. Intel made microprocessors that were the brains in the machines that enabled access to the Web. In the future, people will need an Internet that anticipates their needs. Intel says its vision ...

Gordon Moore’s Law will remain in effect for the foreseeable future. Intel Corporation’s new 45nm Penryn microprocessor relies on a new recipe that combines the element Hafnium and metal gate technology to increase performance and significantly reduce eco-unfriendly, wasteful electricity leaks.

Silicon Valley is not known for paying much attention to its own history but things are changing. The Computer History Museum’s 2007 Fellow Awards was sold out as much of Silicon Valley’s aristocracy turned out for a $250 fund raising dinner that paid tribute to four top technologists: Morris ...

Paul Otellini looked back on 40 years of innovation at Intel, outlined the company’s three main capabilities (silicon technology, Intel architecture, and market creation), and gave his vision for the future. “Today’s innovations are the basis of future technology,” Otellini said.

Intel has brought out new technology every two years ...

Mario Paniccia is an Intel Fellow, and director of the Photonics Technology Lab at Intel. At the Intel Developer Forum (IDF) in San Francisco, we examined Photonics Technology with Paniccia. We also spoke with Jerry Bautista, director, Technology Management, in the Microprocessor Technology Labs at Intel, about developing software ...

Sun Microsystems says it has the world’s fastest server microprocessor, the UltraSPARC T2. And it is the first Sun microprocessor that will be available to other companies. What does this mean for Sun? Tom Foremski talks to analysts Nathan Brookwood from Insight64 and Clay Ryder from the Sageza Group.

Sun Microsystems leaped ahead of rivals this week with what it claims is the world’s fastest server microprocessor. Analysts such as Nathan Brookwood from Insight64 were impressed. Sun also said that it would open up all of its business units as standalone profit centers in a bid to attract additional ...

Formula One racing is the most technology intensive form of racing with a long history of innovations driven by microprocessor technology. Shortly after Intel invented the first commercial processor in 1971 called the 4004, engineers at Goodyear tire were using them to understand the dynamics of the car on ...

The day 1 keynotes at the Intel Developer Forum in Beijing featured CTO Justin Rattner and Pat Gelsinger, senior vice president of the Digital Enterprise Group. They talked about new developments at the company. Rattner filled in some detail around Intel’s research efforts (and explained the critical importance of China ...

Intel says it has developed an 80-core microprocessor chip that could enable PCs and chip-enabled devices to perform Teraflop level computing. The company will offer more details of its research in a series of scientific papers at the annual Integrated Solid State Circuits Conference this week in San Francisco. ...

The Nintendo Wii may not spark an exercise fad, but, in at least one well-publicized case, it may be leading to some welcome weight loss. Also this week, we stopped by Intel, which was showing off its latest chip, Penryn. The 45 nanometer transistors on this microprocessor are being ...

This video was commissioned by Intel.

Intel announced that it will begin making 45 nanometer chips, code-named Penryn, in the second half of the year. The new microprocessors are the culmination of years of R&D using new materials to improve the efficiency and performance of silicon-based semiconductors.

The company says ...
