Intel Labs' Single-chip Cloud Computer animation

Intel Labs has created an experimental Single-chip Cloud Computer, (SCC) a research microprocessor containing the most Intel Architecture cores ever integrated on a silicon CPU chip 48 cores. It incorporates technologies intended to scale multi-core processors to 100 cores and beyond, such as an on-chip network, advanced power management technologies and support for message-passing.

crazy people dont watch movies because they zap your brains into mush. coincidentally, it's true.

is it coming till 2012 oh :( i felt its coming by 2010 or 11.. thx for info...

i think the idea of the research they are doing with the chip, is to find more than just parallel processing efficiencies... imagine you had a LAN with a file server, web server, media server, 1+ application servers, a cluster of Linux data crunchers, etc... you can have this LAN all on 1 chip... and perhaps have not only a virtual network, but parallel processing across the elements of that network... a marriage of cluster architecture & parallel processing on a chip (?) ...will be interesting

Crazy people bielve in a movie

Thank you! I am cheering for you all the way! 48 cores down, 52 more to hit the 100 mark. I wonder how many cores you will have working on a prototype by December 1 2012.

me too

Woww.. 48 núcleos, seria fantástico tener uno de esos, aunque se que solo es un sueño...... zzzz'''

Pero igual me quedo con mi Celeron Northwood xD.

i still dont get it are all the chips one cpu or are they 100 different cpus working in parallel

good explaintion of cloud computing
