In order to better progress software development i think Intel should prioritise certian open source projects.

For example someone may startup a good open source idea that benefits Progress and Intel could sponser the project with a Intel logo going on the project. That way Developers can get a better fell for the priority stuff needed developing.

Happy 4-th by the way many happy transputations.

The next 40 years are hard to forecast and less interesting..

However, the next _4_ years would be very interesting.

yess Joff .. especially now with all the Extremists ... we might not even have 3 years left. The end of times seemingly has begun. North Korea. Iran. Syria. China. Russia. ... ... the party is all over.

The next technology will be for war and protection. Killing and stopping killing.

Plus medical and gene therapy.

I heard the Forum on Friday APAC time. on 6am to 8am. Intel should cooperate with other open source projects. So that they able to collaborate in building something beyond the small thing. Each kind of Open source development should be take into niche view which this will advantageous Intel to developing something that will make human live easier and less complicated.

year sure no probs

Hello,

Justin is preparing a response to your comments; it will be posted on the IDF blog on the Intel website. In order to provide our blog readers with some context, is it ok if we republish your comments on the blog?

Thank you,

Annie

Oh I do. I have their RSS feed, so I get these on my Google Reader. I was the first to see the vid of Gelsinger briefing on his keynote here - sweet, sweet Nehalem and Larrabee!

Hi there,

Rattner is typically focused on a pretty long time horizon since his main area of work is R&D. For shorter-term predictions I'd recommend following Pat Gelsinger (see video here on YouTube) and/or keeping an eye on IDF coverage.

One of the things i'm looking forward to with your Reserch chips is the ability to Fold Documents of Threads into Software programs select for purpose as opposed to doing things sepratley with files.

I'e Doing Part of the application in MAya some in C and some with the JDK. It will be nice having a more thread driven byte code compilable document to work with especially if you want to work with open reverse engineering of a project or say adapt say a fully fledged program into a gadget/widget.

I believe the concept turing will be challaged of great where one computer can run the programming for any other. I think this sort of thing will lead to a departure from file system based binary systems to Treaded Memory systems virtualising accross many operating setups for many functions for the likes Quantum chips, Bio chips amongnst others.

So instead of just running Lunix through virtualisation you will actually run other virtualised micro oses f or the purpose of using Quantum chips ect.
