Intel is exploring a new approach to scaling CPU performance with its recently patented Software-Defined Super Cores (SDC). This design would allow several smaller cores to work together on a single ...

A team has realized a key milestone in the quest for stable, scalable quantum computing. For the first time, the team has created a programmable, logical quantum processor, capable of encoding up ...

The xCORE XS1-L4-64 integrates four 32-bit logical processor cores at a price that is comparable with competing single-core devices.

The era of the big, muscular CPU is on the decline. The real trend is toward slicing and dicing cores virtually, one for each thread The current approach taken by x86 CPUs — to stuff as many ...

Microsoft processor groups enable developers of multi-threaded applications to transcend the previous 64-thread restrictions. But, why the 64-thread limit to begin with, and why did it take until just ...

A Harvard team has realized a key milestone in the quest for stable, scalable quantum computing. For the first time, the team has created a programmable, logical quantum processor, capable of ...
